script for building numpy from source in virtualenv and outside it
Dear fellows,
I'm struggling with a single script to build numpy from source in a virtual env. I want the same script to be able to be run with a normal env.
So if ran from a normal env it should affect all users. If ran within a virtual env the installation should be constrained to that env.
I tried setting script variables and other tricks but the script is always executed as a 'out of virtual env' user (I cannot make it aware that is running from a virtualenv), thus affecting my real working python. As the script activates other scripts I am not posting them for now (hoping that this is a simple issue).
tl;dr: How can I install numpy from source and build it in a script which uses the virtual env instead of affecting the whole system?
(And yes, I have looked for solutions on google but none of them worked.)
Best regards,

Sounds like you just need to run your script with the Python interpreter in the virtualenv. There's nothing numpy-specific about this.
