I got the following exceptions when install numpy using easy_install numpy, could somebody help please? Whether I am using pip or easy_install, I got the same problems. It is hard to understand what's going wrong.

non-existing path in 'numpy/core': 'build/src.linux-x86_64-2.7/numpy/core/src/multiarray'
non-existing path in 'numpy/core': 'build/src.linux-x86_64-2.7/numpy/core/src/umath'

    I think gcc: internal compiler error: Killed (program cc1) is the key point. Looks like you need to file a bug report. Commented May 9, 2012 at 7:48
  • I just do a apt-get upgrade gcc and everything works now. Thanks. Commented May 9, 2012 at 7:54
  • @hilau can you add that to the answer. Commented May 9, 2012 at 12:55

Perhaps the GCC is not updated. I just did a apt-get upgrade gcc and numpy compiled successfully.

Sign up to request clarification or add additional context in comments.

What version of gcc did you end up with? I have gcc 4.6.3 and am still seeing the error.

You just need to use this command instead of easy_install. Worked for me

sudo apt-get install python-numpy python-scipy

Thanks. I usually install packages inside virtualenv so I don't pollute the global namespaces when developing several projects. Prefer easy_install.
apt-get install does not install the package within the virtualenv. I do not want to pollute global environment.
-1 for suggesting an answer which is not in line with the question related to virtualenv whose purpose is to manage different virsions of packages separated from global (system) packages.
