[Slackbuilds-users] Installing scipy on -current

Yup, installing the mainstream Slackware package cleared it up. scipy 
now builds without a hitch. Thanks for the tip!

Along the way, the pythran dependency problem went away. Can't figure 
out why but it doesn't matter.

Now I'm stuck at matplotlib:

ERROR Missing dependencies:
         numpy<2.3,>=1.24.4

The Slackware python-numpy package is v2.3.3. Haven't dug into it too 
closely but I wonder if the matplotlib slackbuild needs to be updated 
(currently builds matplotlib 3.8.4; upstream is 3.10). Could give it a 
try, but does someone know a solution that's closer at hand?

thanks!

Judah
