Use homebrew to install applications to virtual enviornment

Is there anyway I can use homewbrew to install packages (like numpy or matplotlib) into isolated virtual environments created using virtualenv, without having the packaged installed system wide.

You can install numpy with pip.

Your problem will probably solved by issuing the following commands:

$ export CFLAGS=-Qunused-arguments
$ export CPPFLAGS=-Qunused-arguments
$ pip install numpy

You can test with

$ python -c 'import numpy'

There are several packages which have this problem at the moment. PIL is another example.

Use pip inside of the virtualenv and it will isolate the packages to just that virtualenv. Each virtualenv has a local version of pip and will install the packages locally.
