I guess no. You can install several versions of a package for the same Python interpreter, and only the latest one installed should remain in effect. However, I strongly discourage this practice, as it is always better to completely remove oldest versions before installing new ones (in order to avoid problems with stalled files). So yes, try to remove 2.0.4 from your system directory before installing 2.1. > (Both my Intel and PPC > machines show 2.0.4, which still leaves me wondering why > tables.test() failed on one machine and not the other.) I think there were some issues for 2.0.4 for big-endian machines that have been fixed in 2.1. That may explain what you are seeing.
