The problem with OSX is that as a software development platform with open source tools, it is simply immature. You have homebrew, macports, fink, python.org binaries, Apple's own Python installation, proprietary BLAS/LAPACK with its own quirks, unified multiarch binaries, and whatnot in the mix. This makes everything more complicated to support, especially as the situation evolves with time and "recipes" that once worked stop working. -- Pauli Virtanen _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
