31 I am not sure I understand your email fully. scipy-0.9.0-r2 doesn't require
32 numpy-1.6.1.
33 Indeed you cannot upgrade numpy to 1.6.1 but that doesn't prevent the
34 merging of
35 anything. It is just a version constraint. It is unfortunate but that's
36 the way
37 it is.
38
39 Do you absolutely need numpy-1.6 for something else than sage?
