I have recently upgraded to Python 1.6 (final). Now I can't figure out how to build Numpy with lapack_lite under windows. There is not a makefile for lapack_lite for MSVC and the instructions in README don't really help. All that setup.py will do is complain that lapack_lite is not installed. Specifically, are there specific compiler flags that I need to use to compile lapack lite? Should I just emulate the unix version and do cl -c *.c lib -out:blas.lib blas_lite.obj lib -out:lapack.lib dlapack_lite.obj f2c_lite.obj zlapack_lite.obj I tried doing this, but when I try to run the NumTut examples, I get the following error: D:\Programming\python\Numerical\Demo>python Python 1.6 (#0, Sep 5 2000, 08:16:13) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Copyright (c) 1995-2000 Corporation for National Research Initiatives.

FWIW, I am using the versions from :pserver:anonymous@cvs.numpy.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/numpy, module Numerical, checked out as of Sept. 14. I didn't see any tags defined in the repository corresponding to release 16.x. Did I miss something? Should the releases not be getting tagged in the CVS repository? Thanks for any pointers, Jonathan
