OK, so its a packaging bug ! (No source files installed with the Ubuntu package). So I'll just let it like this until the next release of Ubuntu. I don't want to go around and do what seems like magic on my colleagues computers (I am talking about installing from source) because they don't understand it, and can't reproduce it. It's not worth the while hear, we'll just use python 2.4. Not the end of the world. > In any case, it is known that numarray has problems when working with > 64-bit platforms and Python2.5, so upgrading to PyTables 2.0 (with > NumPy at its core) is strongly recommended. Oh, I fully agree (eventhought all our boxes are in 32bits, even when they have 64bits CPU, because so many proprietary apps don't run in 64bits). And the good news is: PyTables 2.0 is in Ubuntu Gusty, so it will land on all my colleague's computer in a month. Now they tell me there have been a few API changes, so it will break the scripts, but I am willing to spend time fixing them.
