Wrong behaviour here:

>>> import numarray
>>> a=numarray.array([1,2,3])
>>> a[1:2]
array([1, 2])

Expected: array([2])

Hi Daniel,

I guess it is the one mention in numeric bug #176914. I tested it and although it fixes the behaviour mentioned, a bunch of tests from the src_test failed, and they don't with python-2.4 or python-2.5 on x86. I will have to investigate more.

News on this: we should not spend more time on numarray, and it seems that no one will. Better spend time on converting packages to numpy.
See bug #198154 and [1] to help converting.

Closing as WONTFIX because of bug #198154.
