[Pkg-scicomp-devel] Bug#594235: opencv: python bindings should be compiled with support for array interface

[Lorenzo M. Catucci]

Package: python-opencv
Version: 2.1.0-1
Severity: wishlist
File: opencv

To enable the array interface, it's enough if you add an extra build
dependancy on python-numpy-dev, and then the CMake scripts will correctly
define the PYTHON_USE_NUMPY pre-processor macro.

Since it seems there is a need for some more work to get 2.1  into next stable,
I think it would be worthwhile to do that change while trying to work-around
the hppa build problems.

Thank you very much, yours,
