[Numpy-discussion] numarray 0.5 -> python setup.py build fails

[Sebastian Haase]

The reason that I always try "setup.py BUILD" first is that I don't have
root permissions on that machine - so this is a quite important "test" for
me.
Thanks,
Sebastian

I guess this is a problem with permissions. It seems like if setup.py is
trying to install numarray on the Python site-packages directory. It should
not, but meanwhile, run this command as root and it should works. Ah!, do
not forget to delete (or better, move) the old site-packages/numarray in
order to do a problem-free fresh installation. Remember:
