Bug#896208: python-surfer: surfer fails to import

2018-04-20 Thread Helmut Grohne
Package: python-surfer
Version: 0.7-2
Severity: serious
User: helm...@debian.org
Usertags: python-import

After installing python-surfer importing the module surfer
into a python interpreter fails with the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/surfer/__init__.py", line 1, in 

from .viz import Brain, TimeViewer  # noqa
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/surfer/viz.py", line 9, in 
from matplotlib.colors import colorConverter
ImportError: No module named matplotlib.colors

The vast majority of import failures is attributed to missing dependencies.
Often times that manifests as an ImportError or ModuleNotFoundError.
Typically, dependencies should be inserted by dh-python via ${python:Depends}
or ${python3:Depends}. Thus a missing dependency can be caused by incomplete
install_requires in setup.py. Sometimes a missing dependency of a dependency
is the cause, in such cases this bug should be reassigned.
