Comment (by glynn):

 Replying to [comment:16 cnielsen]:

 > However, if the gui or other modules needs a build specific version then
 this could get complicated... Is there a clear idea of which parts require
 build specific and which do not?

 The vdigit and nviz modules are compiled for a specific version of Python,
 and vdigit for a specific version of wxPython. But at present, neither of
 those modules compile on Windows.

 > Where do pywin32 and numpy fit in?

 The GUI needs numpy and pywin32, but those packages only need to be
 compatible with the system Python, not with any specific version, nor with
 wxPython.

 > Can build specific parts only be included in the installer and still use
 an external Python?

 If Python code imports a binary module, it must be running under the
 version of Python/wxPython for which the binary module was compiled. If we
 were to supply the vdigit and nviz modules in the Windows installer, the
 wxGUI would need to be run using the version of Python/wxPython for which
 those modules were built.
