how to get python-numpy to testing



Hi,

python-numpy seems ok to go to testing, but:

http://bjorn.haxx.se/debian/testing.pl?package=python-numpy

a) Updating python-numpy makes 1 depending packages uninstallable on
i386: python-scipy, this should however fall into:

1. Sometimes packages have seemingly recursive dependencies (adding X
makes Y uninstallable, Y is waiting for X). This means the new version
of X will break the old version of Y, but there's also a new version
of Y that needs the new version of X. As soon as all other
dependencies are solved, the two packages can be hinted to go in
together.

as python-scipy needs newer python-numpy etc. So all should be ok here.

b) Updating python-numpy makes 5 non-depending packages uninstallable
on i386: model-builder, ninix-aya, python-gastables, python-nifti,
pyxplot

Looking for example at:

$ wajig show model-builder
[...]
Depends: python, python-central (>= 0.5.8), python-numpy-ext,
python-scipy, python-wxtools, python-wxversion, python-matplotlib,
python-setuptools

I don't see why newer python-numpy makes it uninstallable.

Any ideas how to fix b), so that python-numpy can go to testing?

Ondrej
