Thanks Adam; seems like maybe MacPorts/GCC/whatever don't have those differences any longer? If I remove from the py26-numpy port file lines 44-66 (and, the extra space on line 67): starting with (44) {{{ variant gcc43 conflicts gcc44 description {Use the gcc43 compiler (enables fortran code)} { }}} and going through (64-66) {{{ if {![variant_isset gcc43]} { default_variants +gcc44 } }}} then I find that this port works just as well as before, and the +universal variant also works. If I do: % sudo port extract py26-numpy % pushd `port dir py26-numpy`/work/numpy-1.5.0 % find . -name "*.f*" ./doc/source/reference/figures/threefundamental.fig ./doc/source/reference/routines.fft.rst ./doc/source/reference/routines.financial.rst ./doc/source/reference/routines.functional.rst ./numpy/core/tests/data/recarray_from_file.fits ./numpy/distutils/tests/f2py_ext/src/fib1.f ./numpy/distutils/tests/f2py_f90_ext/include/body.f90 ./numpy/distutils/tests/f2py_f90_ext/src/foo_free.f90 ./numpy/f2py/docs/hello.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/simple.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/allocarr.f90 ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/array.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/calculate.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/callback.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/common.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/extcallback.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/fib1.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/fib3.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/ftype.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/moddata.f90 ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/scalar.f ./numpy/f2py/docs/usersguide/string.f ./numpy/f2py/tests/src/mixed/foo.f ./numpy/f2py/tests/src/mixed/foo_fixed.f90 ./numpy/f2py/tests/src/mixed/foo_free.f90 I see that all of the fortran files are used for testing or in documentation. Hence, from multiple perspectives I don't see the need for a fortran compiler, or for using gcc43/44/45 whatever. Apple's GCC seems to work just fine, and it allows +universal to work pretty much out of the release code. Admittedly, I'm a single person running on 10.6.4 x86_64. Maybe this change won't work on 10.5 or for someone else? I hope others can test it. - MLD _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
