Jeff - Well, that's the problem - I _do_ need scipy! Not for basemap, but for the rest of my application. Does your sourceforge repository have older copies of the basemap code?
My complaint about scipy has to do with the fact that I spent a good week trying to get scipy's dependencies to install on two Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems: I punted both of them over to an outside contractor, who was able to compile scipy on one system, but not the other. And he specializes in that kind of stuff. --Mike Jeff Whitaker wrote: > Michael Hearne wrote: >> I'm trying to build an application on a newly installed Ubuntu.
