Installation problem with conda/pip

[kleflick]

Hi all, I get this error message tryinig to install xerus in a conda environment.
with pip install -e . I get this error:
ImportError: Error importing numpy: you should not try to import numpy from
its source directory; please exit the numpy source tree, and relaunch
your python interpreter from there.
I have no glue what can I do with this message.
Thank you
Klemens
