The output of this command is 1.5.1. That's exactly the command I used to find out the version of numpy that I have. I have just noticed that I have another numpy installation whose version is 1.2.1, located at /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Extras/lib/python/numpy Apparently, this came with Mac OS itself. So maybe the problem is that this is the numpy version detected during the pytables installation? The newer version of numpy, which was installed through easy_install, is located at /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/numpy-1.5.1-py2.6-macosx-10.6-universal.egg/numpy and, as I said before, is version 1.5.1. If the problem is indeed that the older version of numpy is detected when running "easy_install tables", I guess I have to pass it some command line arguments in order to direct it to the newer numpy?
