Try installing the universal build of Python 2.4.3 and rebuilding numpy. Simply moving binaries from 10.3 PPC to 10.4 Mactel won't work; they're not compatible. If you want to simply build numpy on your new machine with the Python installed there, try adding a "sudo" to python setup.py install; that should solve the permissions issue. - -- Kevin Walzer Poetic Code http://www.kevin-walzer.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEuk2crTC5hIgjqTMRAnsVAJwPN1Q6uiNZBI1KWEwX3tre647KTgCgiMJZ YuZiUaXRBJzpd8d0iOzOHAA= =4vha -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
