We need help getting numpy to build on your hardware.
This means getting the right config.h file generated. We can start by manually creating a config.h file that works for your platform and then figuring out how to get it written. This configuration file just defines various variables depending on whether or not your platform (combination of hardware and compiler) has various functions, has various types defined, and what the sizes of different types are on your platform. It usually takes somebody with that hardware to get it fixed. Are you willing to help? -Travis _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
