[Py2exe-users] Numpy / py2exe problems

[Reidar H. <rei...@gm...>]

Hi

When trying to use numpy with py2exe, I run into the exact same
problem as in this poster on this mailing list:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/py2exe-users/3110600

If I import the entire package using the options parameter, I end up
with (full error and minimum example pasted below):
ImportError: No module named numpy.distutils.tests

I've got a clean VMWare testbed running, but have so far been
unsuccesfull with any combination of versions, including this one:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/py2exe-users/3075362

Anybody got any tips on workarounds or can me tell me if I'm doing
something wrong? Or exact version numbers of python, py2exe and numpy
which interact nicely ( I'm stuck with python2.4 though)? Or other
tips on getting it to work?

regards
Reidar Strand Hagen
