Well, the choice is between requiring another dependency, with all the version problems, and including it in the sources; also, although numpy would not depend on scons in any way with the changes I suggested for 1.0.4, it would have helped detecting problems on some platforms. And I hope that in the end, scons will be used for numpy (for 1.1 ?), once I finish the conversion.
I don't see situations where adding 350 Kb in the tarball can be an issue, so could you tell me what the problem would be ? cheers, David _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list [email protected] http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
