Cvxopt and Glpk within Windows

[Sebastien Gilles]

Hi,

I have a problem with a project I'm working on: this project, which runs on Windows, was using Python 2.5 and part of it used cvxopt with glpk solver

I wrote new modules for it, and used to do so syntaxes not yet available in Python 2.5. I therefore updated the project to Python 2.7, reinstalling all the Python libraries accordingly.

There is however a problem with cvxopt by doing this: in installer for Python 2.5 (along with cvxopt 0.9.1) glpk was automatically available, while the brand-new installer for Python 2.7 is without glpk.

Official site is not really helpful: it is just written that glpk, fftw and DSDP are not included.

Is there an easy way to get a functioning GLPK with Python 2.7? Or am I doomed to compile everything from scratch ?

Best regards,

Sébastien Gilles
