The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  python-f2py: Depends: python-scipy-core but it is not going to be installed

This is not a scipy bug. f2py, if anything.

I installed in Xubuntu 6.10 with no difficulty. When attempting to use f2py, it gives the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/f2py", line 4, in ?
    f2py2e.main()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/f2py2e/f2py2e.py", line 677, in main
    run_compile()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/f2py2e/f2py2e.py", line 605, in run_compile
    from scipy_distutils.system_info import get_info
ImportError: No module named scipy_distutils.system_info

When issuing the command f2py, the relevant part of the output is:
Scipy_distutils Version: N/A

Perhaps the scipy_distutils are not being installed but need to be?
Also I do not see any other way to install scipy_distutils

I should add that it is quite easy to get f2py to work on my system by unpacking the tarballs on the f2py website and following the installation instructions. So there should not be a problem with f2py itself.

This also happens in ubuntu Fiesty Fawn development Herd 5 release - same apt-get error as Edgy Eft noted above.

In Feisty/Gutsy all the f2py files have been migrated into python-numpy and that's what should be used instead.

Changed in python-f2py:
