[SciPy-user] Problems with python setup.py install (latest cvs)

[Nils Wagner]

Hi all,

I have used latest cvs to install scipy. However 

python setup.py install --force 

failed. This is the output


raceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 127, in ?
    install_package()
  File "setup.py", line 117, in install_package
    url = "http://www.scipy.org",

    codeobject = __builtin__.compile(codestring, dfile or file, 'exec')
OverflowError: ('integer literal too large',

Any idea ?
