CMake cannot find your numpy installation:

[...] 578 :info:configure ImportError: No module named numpy 579 :info:configure CMake Error at config/FindPython.cmake:73 (MESSAGE): 580 :info:configure The script : import numpy [...]

can our try if numpy is properly installed? Type in your shell:

python

import numpy as np np.array([1, 2, 3])

[martin.haeufel@…]

Output is:

>>> import numpy as np
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named numpy

Thanks for the immediate reply! Martin

this means numpy is not installed. can you check our python version by python --version and see if numpy is installed by port installed py26-numpy (if you are using python 2.7 call port installed py27-numpy)

[martin.haeufel@…]

I am using Python 2.7:

$ python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Apr 19 2012, 00:55:09) 
[GCC 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2335.15.00)] on darwin

$ port installed py26-numpy
The following ports are currently installed:
  py26-numpy @1.6.1_1 (active)
$ port installed py27-numpy
None of the specified ports are installed.

Do I have to select a different python version? Actually I do not even know if I am using the Mac OS one or the one from MacPorts.

Best, Martin

can you run sudo port select --set python python26 and install alps again?

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

Note that alps should ideally be modified to add python variants (python26, python27, python31 and python32) so the user can use their desired python version. Also, it should not actually rely on what the user has "select"ed for their python. It should use, and be patched to do so if necessary, the absolute path to the selected pythonXY variant.

Replying to gamperl@…:

can you run sudo port select --set python python26 and install alps again?

I tried that:

$ sudo port select --set python python26
Selecting 'python26' for 'python' succeeded. 'python26' is now active.

Unfortunately I am still getting an error message:

--->  Building alps

The alps port has been updated to 2.1.1 . These issues should be solved by now
