Also, I think with pip, you need to tell it to look for binary wheels -- it won't do that by default. pip install --use-wheel numpy so that seems like a clear win. > Agreed. The trick is that it's reasonable for users of Apple's python build to want this too -- but I don't know how we can hope to provide that. (and macports, and homebrew... but those I feel better about requiring to build your own -- really, that's what those systems are designed to do) -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception chris.bar...@noaa.gov
