Permissions on python setup.py install

[Labitt, Bruce]

I'm trying install numpy on a linux box.  Everything went ok until the
"end" when setup complained about having insufficient permissions.  I
then installed as root.  The install seemed to go ok, but the example
file in the readme doesn't run.  

$ python -c 'import numpy; numpy.test()'
Running from numpy source directory
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in?
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'test'

What should I look for?  TIA
