Can't you ask your admin to install rpm packages ? Uncompressing the rpm and putting them into random places is unlikely to work. > Unfortunately importing numpy > results in ImportError: .... undefined symbol: > _PyUnicodeUCS4_IsWhitespace. Yes, because you built your python yourself. That's why you should not do that: once you built your own python, you are effectively using a different ABI for every python package packaged for your distribution unless you take care of using the exact same options as RH did. You should not do that unless you really know what you're doing. > Suggested solution found in wiki is to > hard-install numpy. Aaaaah ... it is like running in circles.

But I would first ask your admin whether it is ok to install the rpms. That's really how packages should be installed, not using the sources directly. cheers, David _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
