Hi,

I am testing the debian packaging of 0.7.0b1 and lintian says:

$ lintian python-scipy_0.7.0b1-1_amd64.changes W: python-scipy: unusual-interpreter ./usr/share/pyshared/scipy/sparse/linalg/eigen/lobpcg/tests/test_lobpcg.py #!pytho W: python-scipy: executable-not-elf-or-script ./usr/share/pyshared/scipy/io/matlab/tests/gen_mat5files.m W: python-scipy: executable-not-elf-or-script ./usr/share/pyshared/scipy/io/matlab/tests/gen_mat4files.m W: python-scipy: executable-not-elf-or-script ./usr/share/pyshared/scipy/io/matlab/tests/save_matfile.m

The attached patch fixes this in the scipy trunk. If you agree, please apply.

I am now compiling numpy 1.2.0 necessary to run scipy, I'll report back. If I have time, I'll try to send svn di commits as well.

Ok, so all tests in numpy 1.2.1 pass and one test in scipy 0.7.0b1 fail: ====================================================================== FAIL: test_pbdv (test_basic.TestCephes) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/scipy/special/tests/test_basic.py", line 357, in test_pbdv assert_equal(cephes.pbdv(1,0),(0.0,0.0)) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/testing/utils.py", line 176, in assert_equal assert_equal(actual[k], desired[k], 'item=%r\n%s' % (k,err_msg), verbose) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/testing/utils.py", line 183, in assert_equal raise AssertionError(msg) AssertionError: Items are not equal: item=1 ACTUAL: 1.0 DESIRED: 0.0 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 2973 tests in 289.632s FAILED (KNOWNFAIL=2, SKIP=12, failures=1) Out[2]: <nose.result.TextTestResult run=2973 errors=0 failures=1> Ondrej
