Thanks for your reply. Yes, I didn't realize Debian still ships Numerics. Now I think Numerics should stay (still there are people using it) and also the (old) python-f2py should stay, because of course it is needed. And the new f2py will just be part of the python-numpy package. I created a wiki that explains all of it: http://wiki.debian.org/python-numpy Feel free to edit it. > - the conflict between f2py scripts can be easily resolved > by renaming f2py script in python-f2py package to, say, > f2py2e (that would be an simple change in f2py2e/setup.py file). > The f2py script in numpy has --2d-numeric switch > that when used would import f2py2e package instead of numpy.f2py. Actually, we'll just conflict with the python-numpy package with the python-f2py package and that's it. This is actually how it is now, but I thought that it is more appropriate to have a separate binary package for f2py, but now I don't think so.
