No, the numpy installers have never had a problem on 10.4 AFAIK. The issue was that installers built on 10.6 would (on some but not all machines) fail on 10.5. > > 2010/11/2 pablomos <pa...@princeton.edu>: >> I attempted to install Pylab on my own computer and so far have had no >> success.

I don't know details. This is just a file name, not necessarily the cause of any error during installation.
