Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: python-numeric

This is Hardy on x86_64 with python-numeric 24.2-8ubuntu2:

$ python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jul 31 2008, 17:31:22) 
[GCC 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import Numeric
>>> Numeric.array([[10,20],[30,40]],'s')[1:]
zeros((0, 2), 's')
>>> Numeric.array([[10,20],[30,40]],'s')[1:,]
array([       [30, 40]],'s')

The result of the slice with [1:] is wrong. It should be the same as the
second slice. The bug seems to affect one-dimensional array slices with
no ending point.

The bug is not present in Intrepid on x86 (Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Aug
6 2008, 09:17:42; [GCC 4.3.1]; python-numeric 24.2-9).

An application affected by this bug is ttx from fonttools.
