Nothing in the sandbox is built by default. See scipy/sandbox/setup.py for instructions on enabling them.
It's not in scipy/sandbox/setup.py. setup.py has the appropriate lines for 'montecarlo', 'spline', and others, but no 'ga'. Again, I have version = '0.6.0', according to scipy/version.py. -- Gary Robinson CTO Emergent Music, LLC garyrob@mac.com 207-942-3463 Company: http://www.goombah.com Blog: http://www.garyrobinson.net

I said to read the instructions in there, namely this: # All subpackages should be commented out in the version # committed to the repository. This prevents build problems # for people who are not actively working with these # potentially unstable packages. # You can put a list of modules you want to always enable in the # file 'enabled_packages.txt' in this directory (you'll have to create it). # Since this isn't under version control, it's less likely you'll # check it in and screw other people up :-) -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco

Ah. For no good reason I was assuming that if it wasn't one of the packages listed in the commented code in setup.py, it wasn't available.
