There is some preliminary work in <a href="https://github.com/cctbx/conda_build" target="_blank" class="">https://github.com/cctbx/conda_build</a> for dependencies and the "conda_compiler" branch in cctbx_project for building. The "cctbx_dependencies" conda package already installs mkl and it would be easy to install openblas.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">This should be ready in a few months once some other details (e.g. building releases, filling in missing dependencies) are worked out.</div></div></div></blockquote></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I would be all in favour of using conda. Basically, to carry on what I proposed, my plan was to look how conda does it, and then parrot that in Python. Not terribly productive. But that’s a significant commitment, I understand.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Nigel,</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">yes, that’s also what I am competing against, FORTRAN!</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Aaron,</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">thanks for the invitation!</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Luc</div><div class=""><br class=""></div></body></html>
