This is a dumb pre-built binary package (useful perhaps because it links against ATLAS already) built using distutils. You don't build it and install it using setup.py you just un-tar it in the / directory and start using it. You only run python setup.py install when you have a source file. You can download the sources if you want and build it yourself using: python setup.py install > Finally I tried to move the folder numpy to the location where all the > third-party modules are installed, that in my case is > /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ and run the command from there like: > python numpy/setup.py install Presumably, you can copy the files directly there and then start using it (don't run setup.py though, there is no need). After copying the files over to your site-packages directory, just start python and do import numpy -Travis -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
