A small plea: exciting work on Numeric3 not withstanding, would it be possible to fix setup.py in Numeric 23.7 so that it doesn't fall over on Linux? A few versions ago, if BLAS and LAPACK weren't installed or weren't found, NumPy would automatically build with its own versions of BLAS_lite and LAPACK_lite. Now it just falls over, and it is very inconvenient to have to instruct users of our app, which depends on Numeric, how to patch setup.py, and/or provide a replacement setup.py. Also, the new home page for Numpy, to which http://numpy.sf.net is redirected, does not have a link to the SorceForge project page for Numpy from which released tarballs or zip file can be downloaded. That's another source of grief for users, who may not know to go to http://www.sf.net/projects/numpy Thanks, Tim C
