The whole SciPy installation thing is HUGE! I now I still don't use any
of SciPy because I can't get it all built. Is it yet possible to build
SciPy on Fedora core 4 without lots of painful machinations?
When numpy was called SciPy.core, there was a lot of talk about how
SciPy needed to be broken up into individual packages, particularly the
Fortran and non-Fortran ones separated. It was a good idea then, and it
still is.
