Bug 320135 – Please apply changeset 5790 to sci-libs/scipy-0.7.x

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description François Bissey 2010-05-17 10:31:41 UTC]

Changeset 5790 has been added to scipy's trunk in May last year
and will probably go in for scipy-0.8.
The issue is with the fminbound function in the optimize.py component.
fminbound accept scalar or length 1 array and should return the same,
without this patch a length 1 array is usually returned.
This leads to test breakage in sage.
A patched version of scipy-0.7.1 is currently in the sage-on-gentoo
overlay.

Couöld you please provide a link to the overlay.

What about scipy 0.7.2?

It should apply cleanly on it as well, but because there was a change
of API we are sticking to 0.7.1 for now.
the overlay is at:
http://github.com/cschwan/sage-on-gentoo
I was planning to put a patch closer to the changeset in the science
overlay later on. The patch in sage-on-gentoo doesn't include the 
change to the tests.
