cmake for pykst is really cool! I love the auto down-load/install for
numpy and scipy!
Some comments:
It doesn't seem to check to see if you already have numpy/scipy
installed. Can/should we do that check?
Do people think that pykst should be installed with kst, or should it
be a separate package?
I was also a little surprised by how it worked.
By analogy to what kst does, I expected
[pykst_build$] cmake ../cmake/pykst
to create pykstpp_h.py and put it (and maybe the other source files)
in a subdir (./src?)
I don't know what to expect from
[pykst_build$] make
I expected
[pykst_build$] sudo make install
to copy all of the py files to the correct python directory
I think that installing the dependencies maybe should be done by
[pykst_build$] sudo make deps
or something like that, rather than make. Or is it already a cmake
option? (download 3rd party)?
But I really don't know. Can the packagers (Steve? Matt?) comment on this?
