Hi, [ I'm not a member of this list, please forward reply also to my personal email address ] First of all, I'm not at all familiar with python or numeric python. I need Numeric for testing a software package on my Linux PC. I only needed to try the sofware package, so I wanted to temporarily install Numeric, How do I do that? I mean, there seems not to be a script for uninstall!?! The scripts in 17.3.0 only allow me to install. Why is the uninstall missing? Or am I overlooking something? Thanks, Rob. PS: don't tell me to go in such and such directory and delete such and such files. That would exactly be what scripts are supposed to do.

The "Distutils" used to make the installation does not yet have an uninstall, but the distutils discussion group has been discussing this topic. I don't follow the discussion so I can't tell you where they are, just that I have skipped over a lot of messages on the topic. Meantime go to your Python root, lib/python20/site-packages, and delete Numeric.pth, and the directory Numeric. Also directories MA and FFT if you installed those. Yeah, I know, you didn't want me to tell you that. -----Original Message----- From: numpy-discussion-admin@lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:numpy-discussion-admin@lists.sourceforge.net]On Behalf Of R.
