Hi, There has been made some major restructuring of the SciPy CVS repository: * scipy subpackages are moved to Lib directory * scipy_{distutils,test,base} is moved to a separate CVS module named scipy_core * etc. Here follows instructions how to update your local scipy CVS tree: 1) Make a backup of your local scipy source tree. This is relevant only if you have uncommited files in your local scipy copy. 2) Checkout new scipy CVS tree using cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@scipy.org:/home/cvsroot checkout scipy or cvs -d :ext:loginname@scipy.org:/home/cvsroot checkout scipy 3) Modified files from the old scipy tree may now copied to a new tree. 4) To install scipy, use cd scipy python setup.py install Note that the new scipy CVS tree does not contain all the contents from the old tree, some Attic directories and obsolete files where not copied to the new tree. However, the old copy of scipy CVS tree is available through cvs -d ... checkout scipy1 These CVS changes may cause cvs update failures on your old local scipy CVS tree. As fix, see points 1) and 2) above. Sorry for the inconvinience but hopefully these changes make using scipy CVS easier for many people, both for users and distributors. Thanks, Pearu
