ImportError: cannot import name multiarray

[HonzaSi]

Hi,

I would like to compile python following your example, however, after trying various things, I was not able to get workable frozen output with numpy.

I'm working in a shared environment, so I have most of the stuff at non-standard locations.

First, I tried to run the example as is. This was not successful. I believe that the reason is that I'm using openblas and I was not able to configure the site.cfg for numpy 1.6.2 appropriately.

Since I was able to build python 2.7.8 with numpy 1.8.2 before, I tried to replace the versions you provided with the newer ones. In this case, I got both hello and helloFrozen compiled. For hello, I can import numpy in the interactive mode and everything works. However, for helloFrozen, when I import numpy, I get a message saying "ImportError: cannot import name multiarray".

I believe that the reason is that there is no multiarray.o file in the numpy build directory, there is just a multiarray.so file, but I have no idea how can I create it.

BTW, I also had to comment out the init_sort() from numpy_builtin.h to make it compile with the new numpy version. Do you think that this could cause any harm?

Thanks for help.
