[Numpy-discussion] Numpy compilation error

[Pradeep Jha]

Hi,

I am running python 2.4.4. I installed numpy using the command*
*

*python setup.py install --prefix=$HOME/**bin*

my site-packages directory got installed to the following address:*

/nfs/carv/d1/people/pradeep/bin/lib/python2.4*

in my preconfig file I changed the path to the following as you recommended
*
# If numpy was installed using the --home option, set this to the
# home directory for numpy. This will be needed for all numpy installations
# that don't put the include files into python's native include directory.
NUMPY_HOME=${NUMPY_HOME:="/nfs/carv/d1/people/pradeep/bin/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/core/include"}
*
I still get the following warning message when I run the preconfig file:*
checking for python2... /usr/bin/python2
Python command set by configure to  /usr/bin/python2
WARNING: NUMPY include dir
/nfs/carv/d1/people/pradeep/bin/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/core/include/include/python
does not exist.
setting NUMPY_INC_DIR to
/nfs/carv/d1/people/pradeep/bin/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/core/include/include/python
*

Whats going wrong? The warning is right, as there is no directory
called *python
*on that address.

Just to give you the structure of the installed packages, I am attaching the
output to the cd and ls commands:
