        Not really. Numpy 1.0 is not compatible both with current
        versions of scipy and matplotlib.

        A newver Scipy version compatible with numpy-1.0 has been
        released yesterday. I am going to upload it, but I don't think
        it will be possible to include both of them in Etch.
iff 1.0rc1 is incompatible with 1.0, we should try to get 1.0 into
etch.  is matplotlib released in a version which compatible to 1.0?
Yes, certainly. matplotlib 0.87.7 was released soon after NumPy 1.0, but primarily to provide compatibility for the Win / Mac crowd, since NumPy's ABI changed between 1.0rc2 and 1.0rc3. But the API has only changed in minor ways, and I'm fairly confident that any of the last few releases of matplotlib (0.87.{5,6,7}) will compile and run fine against NumPy 1.0. I guess we'd need a version bump for the soname.

However travis also mentioned that scipy lagged behind, but as this is now 
fixed it would really be a good idea to get the so name change going now... and 
quickly upload scipy/matplotlib afterwards.

Yes, it would be great. But I think, unfortunately, it's too late for Etch:

Shame on us all for not pushing for this earlier!
