I've been reading about the python path issues with Leopard and have tried the different methods outlined for addressing this problem with no good result. Currently I am using a combination of .pth files and a modification to my ~/.profile. One nagging problem is that SUDO commands do not maintain these settings. When I install wxPython, these go into the /System folder, *not* my /Library/Python folder. Also, when installing scipy, numpy.distutils.core cannot be found.
sudo python scipy_dir/setup.py install I've installed numpy 1.0.4 and this is placed in /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages. I've also installed the MacPython from python.org. When running python from a Terminal window, the correct version of numpy gets loaded (1.0.4). However, as has been documented before, sudo overrides these settings, so when I attempt to install scipy, the following error shows up: Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 55, in <module> setup_package() File "setup.py", line 29, in setup_package from numpy.distutils.core import setup ImportError: No module named numpy.distutils.core Has anyone found a way around this? Just for good measure, I've included my current sys.path (after a sudo call): ['/code/libs/scipy-0.6.0', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python25.zip', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/plat-darwin', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/plat-mac', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/plat-mac/lib-scriptpackages', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/lib-tk', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.8-mac-unicode'] -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Leopard-%2B-Numpy-%2B-Scipy%3A-Path-Issues-Remain-tp14710492p14710492.html Sent from the Python - pythonmac-sig mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
