The "History of changes for WinPython 3.4.3.7" does not mention that NumPy was downgraded from 1.10.1 to 1.9.3 (a good thing).

Spyder 3.0.0 beta2 is now available: https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/releases

I noticed some changes on the gohlke site:

• Spyder is removed
• pylint and support packages are removed (the versions in WinPython 3.4.3.7 are working well)
• NumPy 1.10.2 is available
• NumPy 1.10.2 is 4 times the file size of NumPy 1.9.3+mkl for 64-bit Python 3.4

Is gohlke's build of NumPy 1.10.2 compiled with MKL or OpenBLAS?

I thought I put a numpy 1.10.1 in a 3.4.3.6 beta, but removed it from final, so it would explain why it's not in the changelog.

Indeed Christoph doesn't supply anymore some wheels.

Christoph Gohlke has shifted the MKL "bulk" from each independant package into "numpy" itself.
==> You can notice that change from 1 release ago when 80Mo of binary weight moved from scipy package to numpy package, and other packages became smaller.

Christoph Gohlke is MKL-only at the moment.

Spyder, pylint and support packages are back on Christoph Gohlke's site. Also, he renamed the NumPy 1.10.2 wheels to clarify which ones are compiled with MKL. I did a file compare on the 64-bit Python 3.4 variant before and after renaming, and they are a binary match.

Are his MKL NumPy 1.10.2 wheels compatible with the WinPython 3.4.3.7 build? If so, would SciPy 0.16.1 still use the MKL from NumPy 1.9.3 since SciPy 0.16.1 contains the MKL "bulk"? Note that his web page says "Many binaries depend on NumPy-1.9+MKL".

WinPython 3.4.3.7 already use Christoph Gohlke wheels with the "MKL" weight moved to numpy (around November 19th for Python 3.4, sooner for Python 3.5).

Scipy of WinPython 3.4.3.7 = scipy-0.16.1-cp34-none-win_amd64.whl / 9 870 104 Bytes / Nov. 19th

I bet this Scipy wheel targeted Numpy-1.9.3, but it doesn't mean that there is a compatibility issue.
==> the "objective" way to be check that is to launch "import scipy;scipy.test()"

WinPython 3.4.3.6 had still a Scipy 0.16.1 wheel with MKL inside itself. you can grab these older wheels at "sourceforge.net/projects/winpython/files/WinPython_Source/Do_It_Yourself/Winpython_2015-07/basedir34/"

pylint has been updated to v1.5.2. It's dependencies astroid and wrapt have also been updated. All still available on Christoph Gohlke's site.

Dear stonebig,

I found something fun: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Shapely

It integrates well with matplotlib and seems quite popular for the GIS and biology community. I ran into it for a specific plotting problem (trying to plot the union of multiple shaded areas), and thought it might be considered to add in for the project.

Shawn

doesn't it require you install the huge GEOS ? or is it just a small 0.5Mo wheel to be up-and-running ?

No it doesn't... On pypi it said "Windows users should download an executable installer from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#shapely", and I downloaded the 493 kb wheel to get it working.

But it's a good question! I now don't understand why it does not need GEOS. I will post back when I learn more about it.

Graphically speaking, my main pain of the moment is the too-big package needed to show "dask" graphs.
