Re: optimize.py issues with stretch and jessie



Hi Lennart:
I  solved the problem of importing python module scipy.optimize by installing Anaconda2. That worked with the drug-hunting software with both debian8 and debian9. I was short of time and, most importantly, probably incapable of understanding why debian python did not work. Of course those (and other errors) arise by merely commanding

python
>>>imprt scipy.optimize

thanks for your suggestions

The only way I can think of that makes that a syntax error would be an
actual error on an earlier line that confused the parser.

Probably not too many people running scipy in general.

Running the testsuite is probably worthwhile:

python -c 'import numpy; numpy.test("full");'
python -c 'import scipy; scipy.test("full");'

If it passes, you are probably set to go, and otherwise something probably
needs fixing.

Trying on sid, numpy had 2 errors when I tried, but those might be
that the test had to be run in a specific place with some data file.
I didn't check.  It complained about not finding a file with some
extension (that it didn't bother to say what was).
