Absolutely not. While we can add however many warnings and notes about how going without Fortran/BLAS works but is not performant, the general expectation amongst this userbase, ports or not, assumes that some Fortran/BLAS implementation is always available. This is simply one of those situations that can garner negativity/pessimism on FreeBSD as a scientific computing platform, far beyond any reduced dependency footprint, even if it is a pilot error from not reading warnings (and nobody in this case will actually read and heed them). The significant use of numpy and ecosystem amongst academia, particularly those who do not have the cycles to work through pilot errors like this, is another factor. Please refer to comment 15 as to why GCC is a runtime dependency. It does not have to be with an alternative Fortran compiler. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. You are the assignee for the bug.
