I'm not saying all those packages are affected... I'm saying that's a starting point for packages to be checked. The ABI break is real. Quoting scipy.org: "NumPy 1.4.0 release pulled. (2010-2-8) Due to an unintended ABI break the 1.4.0 release has temporarily been pulled pending a decision on how to handle the ABI incompatibility." Its almost two months later and NumPy 1.4.0 is still pulled from upstream. Not a good sign. Do we revert to back to to the old version if upstream doesn't re-release 1.4 before F13 release date? Sort of an important question. I'm still coming up to speed on the details by reading the upstream mailinglist. -jef -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
