IT'S NOT A SETUPTOOLS ISSUE. If you had done a "python setup.py build_ext --inplace" and then set your PYTHONPATH manually, you would have the same problem. Stop blaming setuptools for every little problem. Building inplace is not a setuptools feature. It's a distutils feature. The fact that we have header files in the package is a numpy feature. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
