Why is this a blocker? Also, scigraphica depends on numeric, not numarray. From which bug is the attachment? Please, clarify the whole thing. Thanks. OK, I should give more info, you are correct. This one blocks scigraphica-2.1.0 new ebuilds are available at: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93095 The problem is the following: Adrian (author of sg) changed dependency of sg from numeric to numarray. So I'm standing on the line: If I try to install sg using my new ebuilds I get numarray (dependency of sg) and numeric ('cause of IUSE of pygtk; I don't know the correct reason, but it seems to be default on x86) Now scigraphica give strange results if both numeric *and* numarray are installed. So there are two possible solutions: 1. pygtk can use numarray instead of numeric (thats the ebuild I provided in the mentioned bug-report) 2. We need to patch the installation routine of sg and hope, there are no side-effects if both numeric *and* numarray are installed. Thanks for clearification! ;) Best regards Jan I'll reopen till we get the "real" solution. OK, I added the block for Bug 93095 and CCed the maintainers of scigraphica; hopefully we'll be able to find some solution. Thanks for explanation. Any new developments about this? (In reply to comment #2) > Now scigraphica give strange results if both numeric *and* numarray are > installed. Could you specify which are those strange results? I am trying to work on the scigraphica ebuilds in bug #93095. I tried building pygtk disabling numeric but did not see any change in scigraphica behaviour. This bug doesn't make sense. Besides, package.masked for gnome-1 removal. WONTFIX. |
