when numpy in Linux apt will be updated? It's still 1.3.0 with many bugs
hi, when numpy in Linux apt will be updated? It's still 1.3.0 with many bugs I tried to install numpy from PYPI where 1.5.1 seesm to be present, but somehow it involves 1.3.0 instead: $ sudo easy_install numpy install_dir /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/ Searching for numpy Best match: numpy 1.3.0 Adding numpy 1.3.0 to easy-install.pth file only after aptitude remove python-numpy version 1.5.1. is involved by easy_install, but it fails: $ sudo easy_install numpy ....

There will always be bugs, but numpy 1.3 is a stable release, unless there is a bug that affects what your doing right now? If you find a bug that prevents you from from your specific work, better report that bug, if you haven't already.

I see an *absolute* import, maybe easy_install is different from where ubuntu expects numpy to be installed? i think the folder distutils is specific for ubuntu ? try and remove manually the egg in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/numpy-1.5.1-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg then do $ sudo easy_install -U numpy -U is for update, maybe you have to run without -U first?

Good question.. ? easy_install should be distribution non-specific(as far as i know) see also this thread, even though its old. (late 2009) http://old.nabble.com/numpy-1.3.0-eggs-with-python2.6-seem-broken-on-osx,-an... so maybe then download only the egg(with easy_install), then enter the folder and do sudo python2.6 setup.py install Dont you have python 2.7 also on ubuntu? regards mic

Rest assured that "non-ordinary" users like me also get irritated when we have to do extra work to get something to work/install when we want to try something out, its a waste of our time and resources if we have to do it often. Those problems might "always" be there in some degree, i have numpy installed on debian, fedora, and archlinux. Where there was no problems with the easy_install or package system install on those system (this time) But it will always happen at some time or another (as it did for me with install of other software via easy_install, rst2pdf and sphinx comes to mind) But that is a bug with the installation system not with the numpy package(you said 1.3.1 nupy had many bugs !?). A new user might move on to something other, but the reality is that problems like that crop up at some time, unless you have relatively static install. If the user moves on then he probably doesnt have a specific need for numpy, but just for something that can do the same job for his task. (it's unfortunate that he/we can't try it out without messing about).

(k)ubuntu 11.04 (to be released in april) will have at numpy 1.5.1 (or possible newer) https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-numpy also scipy will go from 0.7.2 -> 0.8.0 and python itself from 2.6.6 -> 2.7.1 sam

We do not decide what Ubuntu and/or debian are putting into their release. You should send bug report to those distributions bug trackers if you want to see things improve for those distributions. cheers, David
