Hi,
   I am trying to install PyTables 2.4.0. I have OS X 10.7.5 and Python
2.7. I have installed the following Python libraries: numexpr-1.4.2,
Cython-0.18 and numpy 1.5.1. For HDF5, I initially downloaded hdf5-1.8.7
from the following location:

http://www.hdfgroup.org/ftp/HDF5/releases/hdf5-1.8.7/obtain5187.html

and made HDF5_DIR point to where I downloaded and unzipped hdf5-1.8.7, and
added $HDF5_DIR/lib to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

    However, when I try to install PyTables by the following command

    easy_install --prefix=~/local tables-2.4.0

    I get the following message:

    Found HDF5 headers at
``/Users/bibudhlahiri/hdf5/hdf5-1.8.7-mac-intel-static/include``, library
at ``/Users/bibudhlahiri/hdf5/hdf5-1.8.7-mac-intel-static/lib``.
.. WARNING:: Could not find the HDF5 runtime.
   The HDF5 shared library was *not* found in the default library paths. In
case of runtime problems, please remember to install it.

   which leads to additional problems when I try to run some Python
programs that are supposed to read some HDF5 files.

  Could you please point out where the error is, and what I can do?

Thanks
      Bibudh
