I just installed python 2.5b1 on my Mac (10.4 ppc) and can't seem to get Numeric 24.2 installed. It seems to build fine (no obvious error messages), but when I try to import it I get: Python 2.5b1 (r25b1:47038M, Jun 20 2006, 16:17:55) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5341)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import Numeric main:1: ImportWarning: Not importing directory '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-pac kages/Numeric': missing init.py Any ideas? Is it somehow incompatible with python 2.5b1? Import warning is a new 'feature' of 2.5. It warns if there are directories on sys.path that are not packages. I'll refer you to the py-dev archives if you want figure out the motivation for that. So, if everything seems to work, there's a good chance that nothing's wrong, but that your just seeing a complaint due to this new behaviour. If you check recent messages on Python-dev someone just posted a recipe for suppressing this warning.

For what it's worth, numarray builds and installs fine. I've not tried numpy or any other packages yet.
