hi,
i am running Linux Ubuntu Hoary and am trying to build the Python
numarray package, v. 1.3.2 by hand since ubuntu's repos won't be
updated until breezy.
i have python 2.4, and gcc 3.3.5
after unpacking the tar, i run "python setup.py install", as it says in
the installation instructions. i get the following:
[colfax 53] numarray-1.3.2 > python setup.py install
Using EXTRA_COMPILE_ARGS = []
running install
running build
running build_py
copying Lib/numinclude.py -> build/lib.linux-i686-2.4/numarray
running build_ext
Traceback (most recent call last):

cc_cmd = cc + ' ' + opt
TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'NoneType' objects
I had a similiar (but different) error earlier, but then I learned I
had to set my "CC" environment variable. So I set that to "gcc". i have
tried setting my "OPT" setting to something like "-g 02" (no idea what
it means just found it somewhere, but it still didn't work.
upon closer inspection of Python's distutils sysconfig.py, is the error
being caused by the ' ' in "cc_cmd = cc + ' ' + opt"? Any ideas on this
new error? Are there packages/settings I need to take care of before i
can use Python's distutils to install stuff?
Thanks,
Jason
