The PyOpenGL Sourceforge home page is the one that lists the dependencies:

in particular, that page lists:
# Tcl/Tk appropriate for your Python version
# GLUT 3.7+
# Python Imaging Library (PIL) any recent version
# Numeric Python (Numpy) v. 23 (for PyOpenGL 2.0.1.08)

all as dependencies, but each of those is optional

Ah. Numeric Python v. 23 is actually referring to the Numeric module, not the newer numpy module, despite the (Numpy) reference.

This is not such a bad thing, as Numeric is apparently faster for small arrays.

The whole Numeric / numarray / numpy / scipy thing is getting a bit confusing.
