[Numpy-discussion] Trouble using f2py on successful numpy build from SVN (1.0.5 dev4951)

[Joshua Lippai]

Ah, good call. I did previously have an easy_install of numpy but I
assumed the setup.py install would just overwrite anything from that
install outside the site-packages folder. Thanks. Is there anything
else I might run into as a side effect of my sloppiness?
