The error messages sound like you're missing a bunch of the thing required to build the packages you're trying to compile. It looks like libraries called Atlas and Blas, plus a fortran compiler, from the errors you posted. Are you using ubuntu? You didn't say, but I see you're using a ubuntu pastebin. Are you wedded to compiling and installing with pip? It's a whole lot easier to just use the packaging system included with ubuntu when you can. In this case you should be able to do `sudo apt-get install python-numpy` to install numpy. If you do want to compile and build via pip, I would start by doing `sudo apt-get build-dep python-numpy` to get all the required prerequisites installed, then retry installing via pip. -- Jerry _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
