Wow, I am genuily surprised that the alpha test suite has no error (the 2.5 error has nothing to do with the fixes). > >> Also, if there is another issue preventing numpy 1.4.x integration on >> debian and ubuntu, please speak up.

Yes, we have improved quite a bit our support here in 1.4.x - we hope that those issues won't arise in the 1.x series anymore. Note also that if those dtype errors appear with pyrex/cython-generated code, using a more recent cython will prevent the error from happening (warnings raised instead). > As usual, Ubuntu will > just sit and wait for us to do the work and then just sync it (sigh). > >> the need for downstream patches (none of them was necessary IIRC), > > Here is the list of the patches we currently have in the Debian > package (you can look at them at [2]): > > 02_build_dotblas.patch > - Patch to build _dotblas.c when ATLAS is not installed. > -- dunno exactly what it does, it seems to infer _dotblas is compiled > is ATLAS is missing This is is caused by not having atlas as a build dependency I guess. Strictly speaking, dotblas only requires cblas, but we don't have the check in place to do so. Since numscons already does this, and it has worked pretty well, maybe I will take time to add this as well in numpy.distutils.
