It has bugs that have not been fixed, and is closed source so we cannot fix them ourselves. We have been getting a handful of reports from users who end up building NumPy on macOS, and inadvertently link to Accelerate, then end up with wrong linalg results. In PR 14880https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/14880 I propose to disallow finding it when building NumPy. At this time it will remain in distutils as one of the backends to support users, but how do people feel about a future PR to totally remove it? Someone pointed out that Apple has not officially dropped support as far as it can be determined. Sorry for the bad information. However, I still stand by the "has bugs that have not been fixed, and is closed source". An alternative to dropping automatic support for it would be to find a channel for engaging with Apple to report and fix the bugs. Matti
