[Discuss-gnuradio] make check - Numeric import error:

[Siva Subramani]

Dear all,

While installing gnuradio-core-2.6, when I execute make check I get

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "./qa_rational_resampler.py", line 24, in ?

   import Numeric
ImportError: No module named Numeric



I have seen past emails in mailing-list. It gives some clue on what causes 
such errors, but doesn't give solutions. The problem,I notice, is in 
setting pythonpath.

I installed using --prefix so, the Numeric, numarray packages are in my 
user space /sk2552/gr/lib64/python2.3/site-packages/Numeric and NOT in 
/usr/lib...

In my .bashrc, I set my PYTHONPATH as

export GR=$HOME/gr
PATH=.:$GR/bin:$PATH

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$GR/lib/pkgconfig/

export 
PYTHONPATH=$GR/lib/python2.3/site-packages:$GR/lib/python2.3/site-packages/Numeric:/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages:$GR/lib64/python2.3/site-packages:$GR/lib64/python2.3/site-packages/Numeric


I tried installing Numeric without --prefix, and as expected it denied cos 
I  do not have root privileges.
In emailing-lists someone suggested to create Numeric.pth in 
/usr/lib....directory, again denied for the same reason.

Please suggest a solution to this problem (and please point out where I am 
making mistakes).

Thanks,

Regards,
Siva
