Hi all,

  I am trying to package a tiny python module:

http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tifffile/tifffile_20111112-1.dsc

  I thought I did it right, but I cannot load the python module
properly when installed, it fails with:

$ python /usr/share/pyshared/tifffile.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/pyshared/tifffile.py", line 117, in <module>
    import numpy
  File "/usr/share/pyshared/numpy/__init__.py", line 132, in <module>
    import add_newdocs
  File "/usr/share/pyshared/numpy/add_newdocs.py", line 9, in <module>
    from lib import add_newdoc
  File "/usr/share/pyshared/numpy/lib/__init__.py", line 4, in <module>
    from type_check import *
  File "/usr/share/pyshared/numpy/lib/type_check.py", line 8, in <module>
    import numpy.core.numeric as _nx
  File "/usr/share/pyshared/numpy/core/__init__.py", line 5, in <module>
    import multiarray
ImportError: No module named multiarray


  However doing the following works nicely:

$ cd /tmp
$ cp /usr/share/pyshared/tifffile.py .
$ python tifffile.py --version
tifffile.py 2011.11.12

Thanks for suggestion,
