Hello. I'd appreciate if the NumPy team could provide an MSI installer for Python 2.7. Thanks, Ram Rachum.

You're not the only person who would like this - it was discussed here just 9 days ago, thread title "A release for python 2.7?", and the conclusion was we'd have to wait for Numpy 1.5, probably in August. Peter

It seems that building from the 1.4.x branch works out of the box, so at least a numpy msi should be straightforward, David

Binaries built from the numpy 1.4.x branch do crash on Python 2.7 because of this: http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/1345. The fix is easy to backport (attached). Until yesterday another reason not to release numpy 1.4.1 binaries for Python 2.7 was the projected use of PyCapsule instead of PyCObject in numpy 1.5+. -- Christoph

I don't think we can apply this patch, compile some binaries and still call
it 1.4.1. It would be 1.4.2, which wouldn't take that much less time to arrive than 1.5.0. Maybe it does make sense to apply the patch for people wanting to create their own binaries, or in (the not so likely) case there is another reason to release 1.4.2. Cheers, Ralf
