Bug Description

if you run f2py with the --g3-numpy option it tries to import files which are not in the numpy package. If you look at /usr/bin/f2py2.5 you can see what in particular:

if mode=="g3-numpy":
    try:
        from main import main
    except ImportError:
        from numpy.f2py.lib.api import main

This file main.py or api.py should be in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy/f2py/lib/ and are included in the original source distribution of numpy, but they are apparently not included in the ubuntu package.

I checked on the ubuntu packages web site to see if this has already been fixed for gutsy, but it has not.

I opened up the orig.tar.gz from the source package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/python/python-numpy and I see that /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy/f2py/lib/api.py is present.

However, it is absent from the binary packages. So it seems that this issue is not resolved.

I've just uploaded a new revision that installs all the remaining f2py files that weren't being installed from the source before (including api.py). As this is new functionality for the Debian package, any testing/feedback you could provide would be very helpful.

python-numpy (1:1.0.3-1ubuntu1) gutsy; urgency=low

  * Uncomment rules in debian/rules to install more f2py files
  * Add debian/rules to install the remainder of f2py (LP: #117963)
  * Update python-numpy.install with new files.
  * Change maintainer to MOTU
