Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2013-02-07 12:21:14 UTC 
scipy supposedly supports Python 3.* while it unconditionally rdepends on dev-python/imaging which does not.
Comment 1 Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-02-07 12:40:34 UTC 
Interesting,

from scipy FAQ:

Is Python 3 supported yet?
NumPy supports Python 3.1 and up. The first release to support Python 3 was NumPy 1.5.0. The same is true for SciPy, since version 0.9.0.
Comment 2 Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2013-02-07 12:49:00 UTC 
I guess that's just a partial RDEP or something like that.

From imaging website:

The current free version is PIL 1.1.7. This release supports Python 1.5.2 and newer, including 2.5 and 2.6. A version for 3.X will be released later.
Comment 3 Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-02-07 12:50:12 UTC 
It seems to be rather a "soft" dep.


Note that the Python Imaging Library (PIL) is not a dependency
of SciPy and therefore the `pilutil` module is not available on
systems that don't have PIL installed.

fedora is also shipping scipy for py3. Can we workaround the Imaging issue?
Comment 5 Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-02-07 15:14:49 UTC 
It seems upstream is still working on py3 support. There is a 2to3 conversion from 5. Jan which far after the release of 0.11.0. So we should wait for 0.11.1 fpr py3 support.

Yes, I already did it. Just opening a bug to make sure we don't forget about it.
