[Numpy-discussion] Numpy that is compatible with Scipy windows installer version

[Ryan Krauss]

I am a Linux user trying to install Numpy/Scipy on a Windows machine
in my office.

I went to the website and grabbed the two latest versions:
scipy = scipy-0.5.0.win32-py2.4.exe
numpy = numpy-1.0b5.win32-py2.4.exe


Trying to import scipy I get:
Python 2.4.3 (#69, Mar 29 2006, 17:35:34) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import scipy

RuntimeError: module compiled against version 1000000 of C-API but this version
of numpy is 1000002
Fatal Python error: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import... exiting.


I read about this problem on the list and there was mention of needing
a different Numpy version.  With a slightly older Numpy I got
(numpy-0.9.8.win32-py2.4.exe):

Python 2.4.3 (#69, Mar 29 2006, 17:35:34) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import scipy

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\scipy\__init__.py", line 32, in ?
    from numpy import oldnumeric
ImportError: cannot import name oldnumeric


Are there windows installers available for compatible versions of
Scipy and Numpy?

Thanks,
