Source: dolfin Version: 1.6.0-1 Severity: serious Justification: makes the package in question unusable or mostly so
Dear Maintainer, Please remove the python-netcdf dependency from python-dolfin. python-netcdf is incompatible with numpy 1.9 and hasn't been in testing for almost two years. There hasn't been any upstream activity since 2014, making it unlikly to gain compatibility with numpy 1.9. python-netcdf4 may be a suitable alternative for dolfin, it is actively maintained by the NetCDF upstream developers. This bugreport is filed as part of the process to get all reverse dependencies of python-scientific removed from Debian unstable. If dolfin cannot do without the python-scientific dependency, it will also need to be removed from Debian. Kind Regards, Bas -- debian-science-maintainers mailing list debian-science-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/debian-science-maintainers
