Thanks, Alan, I'll look into this following your numba example.
I'm just wondering, shouldn't for example the numpy version be part of the toolchain definition? Libraries like pandas and scipy use the numpy C stuff, if I remember correctly, so that a pandas build with numpy 1.9 is different from a pandas build with numpy 1.10. Not sure if numba from your example should also suffer from this or not. Cheers, Andreas. Alan O'Cais writes: > Dear Andreas, > > I was actually going to look into this soon.
