[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#860158: python-pbcore: prints warnings with recent h5py on ppc64el

[Graham Inggs]

Source: python-pbcore
Version: 0.5.2+dfsg-2
Affects: kineticstools

Hi Maintainer

Warnings are printed when pbcore.io is imported on ppc64el, as the 
following transcript from a session on plummer.debian.org shows.

$ python
Python 2.7.13 (default, Jan 19 2017, 14:48:08)
[GCC 6.3.0 20170118] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

   a = a + a
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/numpy/core/machar.py:129:

   temp1 = temp - a
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/numpy/core/machar.py:138:

   itemp = int_conv(temp-a)
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/numpy/core/machar.py:162:

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/numpy/core/machar.py:171:

   if any(temp-a != zero):
 >>>

These warnings appeared shortly after the h5py release candidates were 
uploaded in January.  They cause the autopkgtests of kineticstools on 
ppc64el to fail due to the unexpected output.
