Hi. I&#39;ve to admit that I&#39;m quite new in python and also to numpy. I&#39;m trying to install numpy and scypy on my mac (Mac Os X 10.6.3). I&#39;ve installed the last version of python (<a href="http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.5/python-2.6.5-macosx10.3-2010-03-24.dmg" target="_blank">Python 2.6.5 Mac OS X Installer Disk Image</a>).<div>


After than I&#39;ve downloaded the latest version of numpy (<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.4.1/numpy-1.4.1-py2.6-python.org.dmg/download" target="_blank">numpy-1.4.1-py2.6-python.org.dmg</a>) and finally also the latest version of scypy (<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/scipy/files/scipy/0.7.2/scipy-0.7.2-py2.6-python.org.dmg/download" target="_blank">scipy-0.7.2-py2.6-python.org.dmg</a>). </div>


<div>When I try the test I obtain the following errors</div><div><div><br></div><div>Python 2.6.5 (r265:79359, Mar 24 2010, 01:32:55) </div><div>[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5493)] on darwin</div><div>Type &quot;help&quot;, &quot;copyright&quot;, &quot;credits&quot; or &quot;license&quot; for more information.</div>
