+## New numpy custom dependency
+
+Support for `dependency('numpy')` was added, via supporting the `numpy-config` tool and
+pkg-config support, both of which are available since NumPy 2.0.0.
+
+Config-tool support is useful because it will work out of the box when
+``numpy`` is installed, while the pkg-config file is located inside python's
+site-packages, which makes it impossible to use in an out of the box manner
+without setting `PKG_CONFIG_PATH`.
