In my understanding there is no need to patch any of the reverse
dependencies. Currently there are binary packages called python-numpy
and python3-numpy, built from a source package called python-numpy. In
my understanding the proposed change is to keep having the exact same
binary packages, just built from two different source packages
(python-numpy and python-numpy-legacy or whatever).
