Doesn't work with on OSX (import matrix error)

[marcin ignac]

Hi,

I'm using 0.47pre4 on OSX 10.6.2 64bit and every time i run PixelSnap
i get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

so it would appear to be an issue with numpy on 64-bit.

Hi, an issue's been added to the issue tracker by sp...@lin.us.com, who was experiencing exactly the same problem.

I don't run a 64-bit machine, or PPC, just i386, so I can't test any theories, but there's some further ideas to try here: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pythonmac-sig/2006-March/016691.html

See issue 4 for the bug & discussion here: http://code.google.com/p/pixelsnap/issues/detail?id=4

Let us know how things work out for you. Once we find a solution, I'll add it to the installation notes.
