[Numpy-discussion] problems installing NumPy on OSX

[<ar...@st...>]

Hi,

I'm sorry if this might seem like a stupid question to some of you, =20
but I have been struggling for the better part of the afternoon trying =20
to install NumPy on my G4 iBook, so I hope somebody can take the time =20
to lend me a helping hand. I have searched a little in the mail =20
archives and tried to follow the instructions on this page:
http://www.scipy.org/Installing_SciPy/Mac_OS_X

Python 2.5 is installed, and I have installed Apple's Developer's =20
Tools (i.e. the package "December 2002 Mac OS X Developer Tools"). The =20
GCC/G77-installation seemed to go ok.

When I try to install the FFW libraries however, I get an error =20
message telling me that my "C compiler cannot create executables" =20
(full output below).

After that I didn't really expect the installation of NumPy to work, =20
but I got a "permission denied"-error message that I'm not so sure is =20
connected to the missing FFW.

So I'm at loss... Anyone?

Many thanks,

    Arild N=E6ss
