BUG: py-numeric 24.0 fails to build

[nsiam@…]

after setting the appropriate checksum (see 5493), py-numeric still fails to build:

gcc -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup build/temp.darwin-8.2.0-Power_Macintosh-2.4/Src/ lapack_litemodule.o -L/usr/lib/atlas -llapack -lcblas -lf77blas -latlas -lg2c -o build/lib.darwin-8.2.0- Power_Macintosh-2.4/lapack_lite.so /usr/bin/ld: warning -L: directory name (/usr/lib/atlas) does not exist /usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -llapack collect2: ld returned 1 exit status error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

the setup.py + customize.py wants to build the lapack lite library for py-numeric, when it shouldn't, since we're on a mac with veclib. the source of the problem seems to be from the customize.py. customize.py settings seem to override the build behaviour even though it successfully finds the veclib framework path. the workaround i used was to change the "if 1:" conditionals in customize.py to "if 0:".

great - the numeric folks just changed the v24.0 tarball & its release date; have a look at e. g.: ​http://python.codezoo.com/pub/component/3589?category=190 ​http://www.novell.com/products/linuxpackages/professional/python-numeric.html

Nevertheless, I'll look into this!

ok, fixed this issue; use new dist_subdir, inc. epoch; now have customize.py files in $filesdir - one for os x and one for puredarwin; both may be still sub-optimal in terms of optimization.
