Numpy Install Requirement

greenstick opened this issue · 2 comments

This is to serve as documentation of an error that I was notified of by email:

I downloaded it as you described in the tutorial
>> /home/users/emechebe/packages/miniconda2

However when I ran this:
>> conda install gcc

I got this scary error message

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/users/emechebe/packages/miniconda2/bin/conda", line 4, in <module>
    import conda.cli
  File "/home/users/emechebe/packages/miniconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/conda/__init__.py", line 12, in <module>

    from numpy import deprecate_with_doc
ImportError: No module named numpy

Updated command in README.md and made a note.

Update: User mentioned issue may have been cause by incorrect configuration of their PYTHON_PATH. There's a good chance this issue is not relevant to most people installing Miniconda.
