Re: [Numpy-discussion] new mingw-w64 based numpy and scipy wheel (still experimental)
Just a wild guess: (1) update your pip and try again (2) use the bitbucket wheels with: pip install --no-index -f https://bitbucket.org/carlkl/mingw-w64-for-python/downloads numpy pip install --no-index -f https://bitbucket.org/carlkl/mingw-w64-for-python/downloads scipy (3) check if there i something left in site-packages\numpy in the case you have uninstalled another numpy distribution before.

[Numpy-discussion] What should recfromcsv defaults be?
Hi All, This question comes apropos this bugfix #5495 https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/5495 that ensures that the default options get passed down the call chain. The current defaults are kwargs.setdefault(case_sensitive, lower) kwargs.setdefault(names, True) kwargs.setdefault(delimiter, ,) kwargs.setdefault(dtype, None) The ones in question are for names and case_sensitive, that, due to the bug, were defaulting to 'True' and None respectively. I think those defaults should be kept rather than the values currently specified in the recfromcsv definition. However, I don't use these tools, so would like some feedback from those who do.

This sounds like it probably needs to be fixed before we can recommend the scipy wheels for anyone? OTOH it might be fine to start distributing numpy wheels first. I very much prefer dynamic linking to numpy\core\libopenblas.dll instead of static linking to avoid bloat. This matters, because libopenblas.dll is a heavy library (around 30Mb for amd64). As a consequence all packages with dynamic linkage to OpenBLAS depend on numpy-openblas. This is not different to scipy-MKL that has a dependancy to numpy-MKL - see C. Gohlke's site.
