There is a very clear reason and that is: After this operation, 37.9 MB of additional disk space will be used. Yes, thats right, that is the size of the python-scipy package in Debian Unstable. So I am glad to intend to remove the dependency, as I really would like to move fiologparser to /usr/bin, but that means currently python-scipy would need to become a hard dependency and I am probably not going to do that. So for fiologparser to move into a more promiment location, I´d need it to be free of that dependency.
