Import error while meetig all requirements

[jsbaan]

When trying to import this package in python 2.7 I keep getting the same error:

>>> import pyemd
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/pyemd/__init__.py", line 63, in <module>
  File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/pyemd/emd.py", line 7, in <module>
  File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/pyemd/emd.py", line 6, in __bootstrap__
ImportError: /home/joris/.cache/Python-Eggs/pyemd-0.3.0-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg-tmp/pyemd/emd.so: undefined symbol: _ZTINSt8ios_base7failureB5cxx11E

I can't seem to fix this, have tried reinstalling, installing using setup.py, dowloading all requirements (numpy, scipy, cython, g++/gcc, everything in requirements.txt, everything else I could think of) but nothing seems to work. What could cause this error?

I'm afraid I can't help much with this, since only Python 3 is officially supported.

That said, I did try to reproduce this and couldn't. It installed successfully into a new Python 2.7 environment on both OS X and Linux.

Try using a fresh, empty virtual environment with pip and setuptools updated to the latest version before running pip install pyemd.

I finally found the cause; it was due my use of anaconda. Once I removed anaconda and installed python 2.7 it worked perfectly. Thanks for the help!
