Ah okay. You're using Python 3.1. Python 3.1 is not supported by pip, setuptools or numpy. That may explain the error messages that you get with pip. Also it explains why there is no python3-numpy package in your repositories. Essentially most major Python packages are aimed at Python 2.6/2.7 and Python 3.2 upwards but not Python 3.0 or 3.1. Does squeeze have a newer version of Python 3 (e.g. 3.2)? It may be possible to get numpy to work with python 3.1 but I would recommend either: 1) Stick to Python 2. 2) Upgrade to wheezy - I haven't checked but I assume that it has a newer version of Python 3. 3) Install Python 3.4 manually (by compiling it yourself). If you do want to try and install numpy for python 3.1 then you would download the .tar.gz from here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/numpy Then extract it, cd in, and run "python3 setup.py install". The people who make numpy don't support Python 3.1 though which means that they don't try to guarantee that it will work so you may encounter more problems.
