ubuntu scipy works for python2.7 but not for 3.2

Question

I have tried many ways to get scipy to play nice with python3.2 but no joy yet.

I have tried:

  sudo apt-get build-dep scipy

no joy

and

    sudo apt-get install python-numpy python-scipy python-matplotlib ipython ipython-notebook python-pandas python-sympy python-nose

and still no joy

The goal is to get scipy to play nice with ipython running python3.2.

Here is the terminal output. http://pastebin.com/LkPZUSAX

help / assistance is appreciated.

Answer 1

try:

sudo apt-get install python32-numpy 

if you have multiple versions of python installed on your system then you have to specify the version for which you want to install the library..

also you can do

python --version 

to check the default python for your system

Answer 2

Try running the command

sudo apt-get install python3.2-numpy 

instead.

Running the command

sudo apt-get install python-numpy 

installs for python2.7 be default in my case.

So one must specify the python version in apt-get command.
