Is it time to remove python-numpy from testing?

2020-07-09 Thread peter green
python-numpy* is no longer buildable in testing due to the removal of the "cython" binary package. The maintainer has requested removal of python-numpy from unstable but the ftpmasters have not yet actioned it, presumably because there are still reverse-dependencies in unstable. A rc bug is
