Description:   Opened: 2007-11-05 12:04 0000
dev-python/numarray is not developed upstream anymore and is slowly being
replaced by numpy, and numarray is buggy with python-2.5 (bug #191240).

So we should get numarray all dependent packages checked.
Here is a list of affected packages with possible resolutions:

dev-lang/gdl: work with upstream (sci)
dev-python/cgkit: do we need this package? (python)
dev-python/matplotlib: cleanup, already numpy ready (sci,python)
dev-python/pyfits/pyfits: cleanup, already numpy ready (sci)
dev-python/pyqwt/pyqwt: should bump to 5.0.x, bug #175657 (python)
dev-python/pytables: should bump to 2.0.x, bug #196062 (python)
dev-python/visual: work with upstream (python)
sci-libs/libscigraphica: remove, package buggy and unsupported upstream (sci)
sci-visualization/hippodraw: bump, work with upstream (sci)
sci-visualization/veusz: fix 1.0, does not need numarray anymore (sci)

> dev-python/cgkit: do we need this package? (python)

cgkit will be a optional dependence for media-gfx/k3d-0.7.4.0 (I just need to
polish the ebuild and submit it). In fact, according to
http://cgkit.sourceforge.net/doc2/externaldeps.html cgkit does not depend on
numarray. And according to
http://pyopengl.sourceforge.net/documentation/installation.html pyopengl don't
depend on numarray, but on numpy, but pyopengl does not have a USE flag for it.
I have no access to a gentoo box, so I have to rely on what different projects
wrote on their website. I will try to submit an updated ebuild for pyopengl
later this week.

------- Comment #2 From Sébastien Fabbro 2008-05-22 22:14:43 0000 -------
cgkit is now numarray free
Here is an update. 

Packages with numarray in old versions, but with these versions numarray free:

dev-python/pyfits-1.3 (being stabilized bug #223257)
dev-python/pytables-2.0.2 (being stabilized bug #223273)
dev-python/visual-4.0_beta26 (still masked)
sci-visualization/veusz-1.0-r1 (being stabilized bug #223261)

Packages to work out:
dev-python/pyqwt: slot 4 needs a bump and stabilization to 4.2.3
dev-lang/gdl: upstream not ready
sci-visualization/hippodraw: check
sci-libs/libscigraphica: still to punt

------- Comment #3 From Dirkjan Ochtman 2009-10-19 08:35:50 0000 -------
Another update, numarray still appears in 4 other packages:

dev-python/visual-5.12 needs a fix for bug 271019
dev-lang/gdl still (even in 0.9_rc3) uses numarray (upstream seems almost dead)
dev-python/pytables-2.1 stabiliziation is problematic (in bug 223273)
dev-python/pyqwt-4.2-r1 has just-as-stable newer 5.1 version using numpy

Any other packages have been fixed.
