Thanks for replying, Martin. I got my colleague (Nils) to run exactly the gcc call you described in your post (see below for what he ran) but it only returns the following:
/home/nwagner/svn/PyDSTool/PyDSTool/tests/dopri853_temp/dop853_HHnet_vf_wrap.c:124:20: error: Python.h: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden /home/nwagner/svn/PyDSTool/PyDSTool/tests/dopri853_temp/dop853_HHnet_vf_wrap.c:2495:4: error: #error "This python version requires swigto be run with the '-classic' option" In file included from /home/nwagner/local/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/numpy/core/include/numpy/ndarrayobject.h:61, from /home/nwagner/local/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/numpy/core/include/numpy/arrayobject.h:14, from /home/nwagner/local/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/numpy/numarray/numpy/libnumarray.h:7, from /home/nwagner/svn/PyDSTool/PyDSTool/tests/dopri853_temp/dop853_HHnet_vf_wrap.c:2758: /home/nwagner/local/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/numpy/core/include/numpy/npy_common.h:71:2: error: #error Must use Python with unicode enabled.
