Hi, we with Kumar made a progress and had python-numpy uploaded (thanks Fabio).
It builds nicely in pbuilder, but fails to build on buildbots. See: http://buildd.debian.org/pkg.cgi?pkg=python-numpy Fabio uploaded it on amd64, so that one is fine. Crucial are the following lines from debian/control: Build-Depends: cdbs (>= 0.4.43), python-all-dev, python-all-dbg, python-central (>= 0.5.6), refblas3-dev [!arm !m68k], lapack3-dev [!arm !m68k], debhelper (>= 5.0.38), g77, patchutils, python-docutils, fftw3-dev Build-Conflicts: lapack-dev [!arm !m68k], blas-dev [!arm !m68k], atlas2-base, atlas2-base-dev, atlas3-base, atlas3-base-dev As you can see, arm and m68k are exceptions and indeed python-numpy builds on them just fine (see the link above). (It's still building on m68k, but last revision built there fine). It doesn't build on other architectures. If we look for example why it failed on the most important architecture i386: [...] Setting up xfonts-utils (1:1.0.1-2) ... Setting up xterm (229-1) ... Setting up xutils (1:7.3+7) ... Checking correctness of source dependencies...

Removing python-all-dbg ... Removing libfftw3-dev ... Removing debconf-utils ... [...] So as you can see, the problem is that buildbots install atlas3-base for some reason and because we build-conflict with it, we fail. Three questions: 1. Why is there the build-conflict in the first place? This is the question to original maintainers (Marco, Alexandre, Jose, Matthias) 2. Why are there the exceptions to m68k and arm? 3. If the build-conflict is needed, how can we fix the package so that it builds on buildbots? CCing to Lucas, because he has some experience with these kinds of problems.
