First, it looks like you are mixing Python 2.1 packages with Python 2.2
or something.

Hrm. PyPPM may still, unnecessarily depend on being able to open a
socket even though you are installing a local package. You could just
work around this problem by trying this:
- Open the .ppd in your editor. It is an XML file that describes
where to find the actual package file (the <CODEBASE> tags). This
should indicate where in the PyPPM\2.1\... tree to get the Windows
Numeric package. Probably something like:
packages/Numeric-20.2.0.win32.2.1.zip
- Unzip that file in a temporary directory.
- cd into the directory with a setup.py
- Run this command:
C:\path\to\Python21\python setup.py install --skip-build
This should install Numeric for you, although this *is* a work around
because PyPPM's registry of installed packages has *not* been updated to
say that Numeric is installed.
Cheers,
