If distutils is not used at all, there will be more difficult problems
to solve than this one, then. I think it is safe to assume that
distutils will stay
Hi,
Examples look good. It seems that you have lots of work ahead;) to add
numpy.distutils features that are required to build numpy/scipy.
Few comments:
1) Why SConstruct does not have extension? It looks like a python file
and .py extension could be used.
2) It seems that scons does not

Hi Pearu,
Thanks for reviewing this, especially since you are arguably the
most knowledgeable about this part of numpy :)

If this is true and numpy/scipy builds will not break when scons is
not installed then I think you could continue the scons support
development in trunk.
It won't break if

Does scons require python-dev? If not then this will solve one of the
frequent issues that new users may experience: not installed distutils.
Isn't distutils included in python library ? Anyway, scons does not
require anything else than a python

Not always. For example, in debian

(this is another important point which I consider important for a
replacement of numpy.distutils).
Hi,
(if you are not interested in numpy developement, you can stop now :) ).
Following the discussion a few days ago on using scons to build
extensions in numpy, I have reached a somewhat usable milestone, in the
numpy.scons branch of numpy, and would like to hear some comments,
