[Numpy-discussion] numpy installation problem

Hi, I downloaded numpy1.0.3-2.tar and unzipped and untared. However somehow new numpy does not work. It invokes the old numpy 0.9.6 when i import numpy from python and type in numpy.version.version . I tried to change path and once I do that and when I do import numpy it says "running from source directory" and then if I try numpy.version.version it gives some error. Is there something obvious I am missing after unzipping and untaring the numpy source file ? For example do I need to do something to install the new numpy1.0.3 ? Or do I also need to download full python package ? I am trying to run this on Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5 which has a gcc 3.2.2 and the version of python is 2.4 . Any help will be greatly appreciated. Cheers Kings
