I would like to build my complete toolchain, including numy and scipy, as well as my own code, using gfortran from GCC-4.3. It worked nicely until recently. Why were the already working variants removed? {{{ r37408 | ram@macports.org | 2008-06-06 15:24:41 +0200 (Fri, 06 Jun 2008) | 2 lines Changed paths: M /trunk/dports/python/py-numpy/Portfile M /trunk/dports/python/py25-numpy/Portfile py-numpy/py25-numpy: remove unnecessary fortran variants }}} Don't know why they are supposed to be unnecessary? I want them back;-) -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15670> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

No specific error, but for one I don't want g95 on my system at all, and second I am not sure it is safe to mix these Fortran compilers, esp. when they are form different GCC versions.
The numpy ports don't depend on g95 any more, as officially numpy does not support g95 under Mac OS X: http://projects.scipy.org/pipermail/scipy-user/2008-January/015300.html I installed numpy-1.0.4 using gfortran from gcc42 and compared that to using gcc43 and specifiying no fortran compiler. I couldn't find any differences. Also scipy builds (and passes the test suite), with gcc42 and gcc43, against numpy built without a fortran compiler. I haven't tested for any differences in the installed product with numpy-1.1.0 - but scipy passes the test suite. Its a good point about mixing of compiler versions, I have never had any problems though. I can re-add the fortran variants to numpy if you would be happier. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15670#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

We don't so I don't think that we need to have specific fortran compiler variants. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15670#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
