Good point! Thanks.

I just build numpy and scipy from source so I do not know how you get Python 3 or which Ubuntu versions include recent numpy versions (there is a upcoming release that will probably contain a more recent numpy). It is very easy to install numpy and scipy from source on Linux although it is important that Blas/Lapack/Altas are built and installed correctly (I just use my distro's package). Please see the following link for more details: http://www.scipy.org/Installing_SciPy/Linux There was also a recent post on the list as well. Bruce
