NumPy installation won't import correctly

[Ethos]

I installed NumPy for python 2.6 on my leopard macbook, using the
nifty mac installer they now provide. I have the 2.6 official python
distro installed on my computer, in addition to the 2.5 that is native

The file that it claims it can't find a suitable image for does in
fact exist in that directory. I'm stumped.

Funny thing is, when I imported it using python2.5, it worked just
fine. numpy.test(1,10) ran without a hitch.

Thanks for the help. Please redirect me if this question belongs
elsewhere.

Looks like a binary format issue to me. What does


file /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/numpy/core/multiarray.so

give you, and how does it compare to

file /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python

Maybe you need to strip the binaries to your native arch, using lipo.

I had the same problem when I tried to use the MacPorts installation of
python3 within blender2.5alpha0 (I pointed the PYTHONPATH to the
respective MacPorts python3 folder). I figured out, that the blender
binary is a 64bit one, but the libraries of the MacPorts python3 are
32bit ones and these two don't fit together.

Then I found out, that -- as opposed to blender 2.4x -- blender 2.5
comes with all the standard python library bundled. So I'm fine with the
pure blender 2.5 for the testing.



Best regards,

I reinstalled numpy, from sourceforge, even though I had already
installed the latest version. Same business. 2.5 imports fine, 2.6
doesn't.

Here's the output of the commands you gave me.

I don't know if this helps. Thanks for the help everyone.

Here's the output of the commands you gave me.

Which exact version of mac os x are you using ? (the output of sw_vers
-productVersion
would be fine).

I am also trying to install numpy 1.4 and observing exactly the same
symptoms as Kevin (unsurprisingly, since it's a very similar
installation: BuildVersion of 10.5.8 is 9L31a, otherwise identical).
I can also reproduce the problem with the 2.5 version of the 1.4 rc1
numpy DMG (with macpython 2.5.4 from python.org -- it refuses to
install using Apple's own 2.5.1). Is there any known-to-work way to
install numpy 1.4 on Mac OS X 10.5.8, and Python either 2.5 or 2.6?
Guess next I'll try building from sources...
