problem in importing mahotas (undefined symbol: _ZNSt8ios_base4InitD1Ev)

[Antonis Polykratis]

Hello,

I have the following problem.
I installed latest version of mahotas with no errors.
If I try to import mahotas in my session then I have the following error.











*---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->>>
import mahotas as mhCould not import submodules (exact error was:
/home/ant/new_mahotas/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mahotas/_bbox.so:
undefined symbol: _ZNSt8ios_base4InitD1Ev).There are many reasons for this
error the most common one is that you haveeither not built the packages or
have built (using `python setup.py build`) orinstalled them (using `python
setup.py install`) and then proceeded to testmahotas **without changing the
current directory**.Try installing and then changing to another directory
before importing
mahotas.------------------------------------------------------*

The second time I try to import it I have success but I encounter an error
when I try to import surf.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

import mahotas as mh
from mahotas.features import surf

Traceback (most recent call last):

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks,
