fwiw, homebrew is not macports. it's a more recent replacement that seems to be taking over gradually.
And then there is (or was) fink---- Anyway, it would be really nice if numpy could work well out-of-the box with the pyton.org python (and or the Apple-supplied one) without any need fro macports, homebrew, etc. It's actually pretty cool that Apple provides veclib, and and I liked that it got used by default with a simple "setup.py build". It would be nice to keep it that way. If a user (or distributor of binaries) wants to build the whole scipy stack, they'll need to figure out all this *&^%& anyway, changing a config in numpy to build differently would be the easiest part. And yes, there really are folks that use numpy a lot without scipy. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chris.Barker@noaa.gov
