Package: python-visual Version: 1:5.12-1.4 Severity: serious Tags: patch Control: block 685812 by -1
Dear Maintainer, python-visual uses the NPY_CHAR and PyArray_CHAR enums which are affected by an ABI breakage in python-numpy (see #685812). It must therefore be rebuilt. Unfortunately a binNMU is not enough because this wouldn't produce the right versioned dependency on python-numpy (and we want to support partial upgrades). I am therefore attaching a patch for a sourceful upload. For Jessie you might want to automatically generate the right versioned dependencies on python-numpy, as explained in /usr/share/doc/python-numpy/README.DebianMaints. This would avoid the need for sourceful uploads in such situations. Cheers, -- .''`. Sébastien Villemot : :' : Debian Developer `. `' http://www.dynare.org/sebastien `- GPG Key: 4096R/381A7594
