Yes! This is how it should be, but it's not.
I have gone a litte further trying to solve this. I have found out the
following:
If I do an import numpy in python run as user, it works. In fact, 'python
setup.py build' works perfectly as user. But if I do an import numpy in
python run as root, I get the error I pasted in my previous message:
:~/matplotlib$ sudo python
Python 2.7.2+ (default, Oct 4 2011, 20:06:09)
[GCC 4.6.1] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import numpy
Traceback (most recent call last):

from numpy.linalg import lapack_lite
ImportError: libifport.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory
After that I thought it must be something about this libifport.so that
numpy uses, but...
:~/matplotlib$ locate libifport
/opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/038/lib/intel64/libifport.a
/opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/038/lib/intel64/libifport.so
/opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/038/lib/intel64/libifport.so.5
:~/matplotlib$
:~$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/038/lib/intel64:/opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/038/mkl/lib/em64t
:~$ sudo -s
root@:~# echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/038/lib/intel64:/opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/038/mkl/lib/em64t
So I don't know why python fails to import numpy as root... and I don't
know why mpl's installer needs to import numpy to install what has already
been built.
I haven't been able to solve this issue yet. Thank you all very much for
all your help.
Cheers,
Lucia.
