Re: What's the official state of Python module scipy in Cygwin?

2020-06-21 Thread My Name via Cygwin
E.M., Your recipe has worked for me. I've successfully installed scipy per your instructions. Thanks for your time and patience. I have wanted to use scipy in Cygwin for three or four years, but had not asked here until yesterday. Please don't apologize for abbreviating the package names at first.

Why is there no version 3.7 option for package "python3-devel" (but there are 3.6 and 3.8 options)?

2020-06-21 Thread My Name via Cygwin
In the Cygwin installer, the version options for "python3-devel" are several sub-versions of 3.6 and a ("Test") version of 3.8, but there's no option for any 3.7. However, "python37-devel" is another option in the installer. Why? I have never understood exactly the difference between the "python3-d

E.M., Can you please clarify several points you make? - In the Cygwin installer, I find no "lapack", but searching the installer for that term does return "liblapack". Would that Cygwin package suffice? If not, how would you suggest I install it? - In the Cygwin installer, I find no "openblas",

This is mostly over my head, so I'm sorry if my comment here is irrelevant, but I'll point out in case anyone here doesn't know, Python 3 doesn't make Python 2 obsolete. They are somewhat incompatible. Python 2 source doesn't always run in Python 3 without extensive modification. If there's any mes

IIRC, at one point I was able to use scipy in Cygwin, after a period of failed attempts. I believe that having installed gcc-fortran might have been part of the solution I stumbled upon. But now I'm back to being unable to install scipy in Cygwin. Is it supported officially? Or unsupported but som

2020-06-18 Thread My Name via Cygwin
I found an apparent dependency problem in Cygwin, and I'm not enough of a Cygwin expert to know whether the bug is in Cygwin or Bazaar (Package "bzr"); but if I had to guess, I'd guess it's in Cygwin, and I've already reported the issue to the Bazaar forum. In summary, after I installed Cygwin and
