I'm perfectly fine with this solution as long as we *finally* get some progress to let pandas and statsmodels migrate to testing. From the build logs I concluded that a very minor number of tests were failing and thus the packages are usable in principle. However, I agree that attracting the attention of more competent people might be a sensible point. So who is going to file the RM bug? Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
