(Above, "numpy" is the Ubuntu-supplied numpy in case that wasn't clear.) > nose.config: INFO: Excluding tests matching ['f2py_ext','f2py_f90_ext','gen_ext', > 'pyrex_ext', 'swig_ext', 'array_from_pyobj'] I've discovered that numpy itself explicitly excludes these tests (in numpy/testing/nosetester.py): # Stuff to exclude from tests. These are from numpy.distutils excludes = ['f2py_ext', 'f2py_f90_ext', 'gen_ext', 'pyrex_ext', 'swig_ext'] So, all is explained now.
