not quite. easy_install uses distutils (or a modified version, anyway), which builds extensions to match the python it is run with. As pointed out here, there is little reason to have Intel only binaries, but if you really want them, then fin d(or build yourself) an Intel-only python, then it will build Intel-only extensions. (I think -- I've had no reason to try it) By the way, it's possible that the Intel-only numpy was partly built with Fortran, and no one seems to have figured out how to make gfortran build universal binaries yet. (or maybe it's using ATLAS). -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
