It is somewhat difficult to do something somewhat complicated :) In your 
case, one solution to set the dir where numpy is installed is to use the 
env variable PYTHONPATH.

For example, I don't have root privileges on my workstation, and I 
installed everything in  $HOME/local: python setup.py install 
--prefix=$HOME/local. Then, numpy is installed in 
$home/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages, and using this dir as a value 
for PYTHONPATH works (take care at the python version, replace python2.4 
by the version you use)

To check which numpy you use, you can simply do a import numpy; print 
numpy, which should print the full path,

cheers,

David
