I have used easy_install to install numpy to install numpy 1.7.1, but when I check my version in python:
python -c "import numpy; print numpy.version.version"
It says 1.6.2
What am I doing wrong?
Use the pip Command to Uninstall NumPy The pip command can install and uninstall most Python libraries through the console.
Depends. Your first numpy module likely installed in a virtual environment. Therefore, unless you specify that same virtual environment for your new project, your new project will be unable to access a module installed in a virtual environment it doesn't use.
Most likely, you have installed numpy from a debian repository or a pip installation with other parameters. Use
python -c 'import os,numpy;print(numpy.__file__)'
to find out where the rogue numpy version lies. While you can just delete this directory, you can also ask your package manager what package the file belongs to. Again, on a debian system:
$ python -c 'import numpy;print(numpy.__file__)'
/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/numpy/__init__.pyc
$ readlink -f /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/numpy/__init__.py
/usr/share/pyshared/numpy/__init__.py
$ dpkg -S /usr/share/pyshared/numpy/__init__.py
python-numpy: /usr/share/pyshared/numpy/__init__.py
$ sudo apt-get remove python-numpy
sudo easy_install -U numpy
...after many tries, the code above worked for me, finally!
