Hi all,

I've looking for list archives but I didn't find the link. Sorry in
advance if someone already asked about this.


I find some strange dependency resolution on our nodes (sl5.3).
When I try to install numpy I get the error:

#yum -y install numpy
[...]
Package numpy is obsoleted by python-numeric, trying to install
python-numeric-23.1-0.2.el5.rf.x86_64 instead Package matching
python-numeric-23.1-0.2.el5.rf.x86_64 already installed. Checking for
update. [...]

but when I install scipy numpy gets installed. 

# rpm -qR scipy|grep numpy
numpy  


I don't understand why numpy and not python-numpy ...

Anyone could give an explanation on this? what package is the one that
must be installed? (python-numpy I guess).


TIA,
Arnau
