Create temporaries in /var/lib/python2.4?  That's bizarre because the PyTables 
suite uses the tempfile.mktemp() call in order to create temporaries. I've 
double checked that the PyTables suite runs flawlesly even when installed as 
root and run as a non-privileged user.  Out of curiosity, which is your 
output for:

In [5]: tempfile.mktemp(".h5")
Out[5]: '/tmp/tmph-LUxH.h5'

?

The tests that fails may be due to an old version of HDF5. Can you update to 
at least 1.6.5 and run again?

We are looking into that...
