Bug 143964 – dev-python/numpy-1.0_beta2.ebuild (latest version)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Tim Cera 2006-08-14 21:42:47 UTC]

Made some minor edits to dev-python/numpy-0.9.8.ebuild to install the latest version.

Basically had to create a MY_P and MY_S because of the strange naming convention adopted by the numpy team.

Works on amd64.

numpy-1.0_beta2.ebuild

there are problems with this and scipy when i tested beta1. so hopefully this fixes it.

also, the versino should be numpy-1.0_beta2.

[Comment 3 Tim Cera 2006-08-15 19:49:59 UTC]

It is not at all obvious that the 'b' stands for 'beta'.  See http://www.scipy.org/ReleaseNotes/NumPy_1.0 for a description of all of their naming conventions _except_ why they used 'b'.

[Comment 4 Tim Cera 2006-08-15 19:56:07 UTC]

I apologize.  The 'b' does indeed indicate beta.  See last example on http://www.scipy.org/ReleaseNotes/NumPy_1.0

I've bumped numpy to 1.0_beta2 as it works with scipy 0.5.0, although with some weird warnings.
