Comment #10 on issue 2482 by [email protected]: Stop bundling mpmath
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2482
I am -1 on this. On linux there is no problem installing all the
dependencies, on Mac it is a bit harder (no apt-get install scipy), and on
Windows it is way harder. The same on the app engine and other things,
where Distribute is (imho) not an option. The core functionality should
stay pure Python and it should be self contained in SymPy.
+1 to remove pyglet.
Ronan, can you describe the problems with including mpmath in sympy? It
should be able to coexist with any other mpmath installed on your system
without any problems.
The only disadvantage is that it is not completely easy to upgrade mpmath
to new version, which will be fixed by using relative imports, once we drop
Python 2.4. Then it should be enough to just put mpmath into sympy as it is
and be done with it. And import it relatively.
We can discuss with Fredrik, whether he would accept patches to make this
work, but I am sure that things can be resolved. I just checked the latest
release of mpmath and it is using relative imports, so things should work
just fine.
