[Numpy-discussion] Win32 installer: please test it

2008-04-10 Thread Jarrod Millman
Hello, David Cournapeau has prepared a new win32 installer, which is aimed at solving the recurring problem of non working atlas on different sets of CPU. This installer simply checks which cpu you have, and installs the appropriate numpy accordingly (without atlas if your cpu is not supported). W

What's the installer supposed to do? It appears to have decided I have SSE3 extracted an sse3 exe to somewhere, and then quit without doing anything else. I can't seem to find where it put the numpy-1.0.5-sse3.exe it extracted, either. The details, say "Execute: numpy-1.0.5-sse3.exe" but no execu

Seems to work here now, too! It doesn't tell you in an easy to see place what version of SSE it decides to use. Do you think that's ok? (You can tell by looking at the "details" at then end of installation, though. Is there some way to tell this info from inside NumPy itself? If so then maybe

Tested fine on my old Classic Athlon 500 (no SSE) under Win98. It correctly reported installing the non-SSE version when I clicked on the details button on the last page of the install wizard. Whereas previously numpy.test() would bring up an illegal operation dialog box, now all tests pass. Ni

Hi, The installer requires 2.5 but that is not explicitly stated. Given that numpy and scipy technically require Python 2.3 as a minimum, the installer should support Python 2.3 and Python 2.4. Otherwise, it needs to clearly state that Python 2.5 is a must. I did install Python 2.5.2 on my WIndows

The Win32 installer works on my Vista machine. There is one failed test, but I think that's just because it tries to write somewhere it doesn't have permission - I installed Python in /Program Files/Python25/, and you need to be an administrator to write to Program Files/. Here's the error messag
