I was able to install by downloading the package for version 1.7.1 from github and then running python3.3 setup.py install No errors given. So, the problem might be related to pip and the fact that python3.3 is installed locally in my personal home folder which is in a different filesystem than the other python versions. So it might be because of some hardlinks over different partitions or something similar. Anyway, it seems that I have the same problem installing other python packages too, so it is not related to numpy but either python 3.3, pip, virtualenv or my system set up. But still, any help is appreciated. -Jaakko On 08/05/2013 12:53 PM, Jaakko Luttinen wrote:

Hi,

I'm trying to install NumPy 1.7.1 for Python 3.3 using

pip install numpy

However, I get the following error after a while:

error: numpy.egg-info/dependency_links.txt: Operation not supported

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? If it matters, I'm using virtualenv as I do not have root permission on this computer.

Thanks for any help! Jaakko
