From: Nick Matzke on 8 Jun 2010 20:05 Hi all, I have a slightly weird question. I would like to install the PyCogent library. However, this requires NumPy 1.3 or higher. I only have NumPy 1.1.1, because I got it as part of the Enthought Python Distribution (4.1) back in 2008. Now, when I download & install a new version of NumPy, it seems to work. However, the PyCogent installer can only see the NumPy 1.1.1 version. Any advice on what I might do to fix this? Cheers! Nick -- ==================================================== Nicholas J.

From: Nick Matzke on 8 Jun 2010 20:10 Oh yes -- I would just update my version of EPD, which is where my NumPy came from -- however, Enthought only has available for academic download a version of EPD that works on OS X 10.5 or later, and my Mac is a 10.4.11 and I'd rather not completely reinstall the OS just to get one little library to work.

EPD support questions should be directed to the EPD-Users mailing list: https://mail.enthought.com/mailman/listinfo/epd-users But basically, you would remove the numpy package that is installed and reinstall numpy from source. -- 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

Hi again, I got the solution on the NumPy list, I thought I would share for posterity... Jeff Hsu wrote: > Check which version of numpy python is importing with "import numpy; > printnumpy.__file__". I had a similar question and this worked after I > removed that installation of numpy. I think the enthought distro > installs it somewhere else that has priority. Ah, this was totally the trick! To summarize for posterity: ================================= Fix for an old version of NumPy installed with the EPD Enthough Python Distribution: 0. Figure out, what's your current version, and where is it located? ipython import numpy print numpy.__file__ numpy.__version__ 1. Download newest Numpy.tar.gz (1.4.1) from sourceforge, unzip 2. Install with: cd ~/Desktop/downloads/numpy-1.4.1 python setup.py (3 times -- configure, build, install) 3. delete or rename old Numpy, redirect IPython's location to new install: cd /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5.2001/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy-1.0.4.0004-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg mv numpy numpy_old ln -s /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5.2001/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy numpy Manual install of PyCogent: 1. download from sourceforge 2. working install: cd /bioinformatics/pythonstuff/PyCogent-1.4.1/ python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install python setup.py build_ext -if (no NumPy version error this time!) Finally: ipython import numpy dir(numpy) ======================== Thanks!
