It is a bit complicated because you need to build your own python interpreter (the python.org one does not handle 64 bits AFAIK). You could just install your python somewhere in your $HOME for example, and whenever you use this python interpreter to build a package, it will install it inside the site-packages of this python - so no clash with existing python interpreters. There are also things like virtualenv and co which can be considered if you need more than a couple of packages, cheers, David _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
