Hi everybody, I know this should / could be a FAQ, but unfortunately I didn't find anything appropriate on the MacPython pages or the Python Wiki. Here's my problem:
I started with a iMac G5 with all Apple updates installed. Then I installed MacPython-OSX-2.4.1-1, directly after that I installed the TigerPython24Fix-r2. Then I started up the PackageManager and tried to get those modules that I need. I successfully installed PIL-1.1.5- binary, but when I tried to install numarray-1.2.3-binary, the install failed. Now there's an incomplete numarray on my disk that fails to import into python2.4 with the error "no module named numarrayall". When I enable "Show Hidden" in PackageManager, the pseudo packages "WriteableBin-hidden" and "WriteableInclude-hidden" appear not to be installed. It's also interesting, that when I disable "For Current User Only", I get a warning that says "Install directory '/Library/ Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages' is not writeable or not readable". That's correct: iMac:~ asbach$ ll /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/ lib/python2.4/site-packages total 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 119 Mar 31 2005 README Hm. Did I overlook something? What should I do to get numarray installed? chown the installed version of Python 2.4 so that I own them (instead of root), chmod g+w all modules, or do something more advanced? Thanks in advance, Mark _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
