??? I have several versions of numpy installed on my Macbook (OS X 6), but only one Python (the one that comes with Apple). However, these versions are installed in different virtual environments. Neil, could you give us more info about how you're trying to install it ? Have you tried to use the --user flag (ie, `python setup.py install --user`) ? _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
