[SciPy-user] scipy super pack installer for win32: please test

[joep]

> http://www.ar.media.kyoto-u.ac.jp/members/david/archives/numpy/scipy-0.7.0.dev4826-win32-superpack-python2.5.exe

installs without problems on windowsXP, sse2
The only problem I had was that I had a trunk version of scipy (on a
non site-packages directory) in easy-install.pth, which I needed to
comment out. Initially it loaded this version instead of the one
installed
in site-packages by the superpack.

One weird thing I found, when I run scipy.test() in a command shell,
or ipython shell, then I get a large output with Depreciation Warnings
and test output. When I run scipy.test() in an Idle shell, I don't get
any Depreciation Warnings or test output. I have no idea why the
output should be different.

Another observation which is not clear but is not very important is
that, when I compiled the trunk version a few weeks ago (with MingW)
and I run scipy.test(), then I don't get the 2 test failures in
test_lapack.test_all_lapack. (my lapack and atlas files were
downloaded a long time ago from the scipy.org install description
page)
