numpy becomes big. see https://launchpad.net/bugs/309215. In the past the parts
depending on external numeric libraries were splitted out into a separate
package, but the package structure now makes it difficult to keep this split.
Please consider splitting out a python-multiarray (seems to be straightforward,
maybe keep it in its own name space) or a python-numpy-core/-base package
(unsure where to make the split).

As long as you can fulfill the dependencies with build dependencies all should
be ok. However python itself now uses sphinx from the sphinx trunk. very nice :-/
