A possible (e) occured to me: e) Place the numpy.linalg stuff in a subpackage of numpy, which requires atlas and friends. Keep only the core numpy functionality in numpy itself, with other subpackages for the numpy.foo stuff. Then pygtk2 could just require the basic numpy package which would be smaller in size and have a lot less deps. I've no idea how hard this would be, and what might break, though. So it may be a stupid idea. Jonathan. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
