Sorry, but I've changed my mind. In general, suppressing all the warnings is not a good thing. For instance, I remember that a Debian developer had a problem with the 64-bit port of PyTables and discover the flaw just by looking at the warnings in the build log. What I've done is the addition of a 'eflags' parameter to setup.py. These flags will be passed directly to the compiler, so that users can reduce the level of warning, or change the default optimization level by issuing, for example: python2.5 setup.py build_ext --inplace --eflags='-w -O3' Cheers, -- >0,0< Francesc Altet http://www.carabos.com/ V V Cárabos Coop.
