And really, this isn't that unreasonable. Not only does this make users more aware of their environment (ie, the distinction between your package and the major numerical package in Python), but its so much cleaner. With the combined approach, any NumPy installation problems would be (frequently) associated with your package. On the other hand, if there are any NumPy installation problems in the separated approach, at least your package is blameless. _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
