Description Ville Skyttä 2005-02-23 20:36:15 UTC
As far as I can tell, all distributions out there, including Fedora Extras,
calls this package "python-numeric".

Please consider changing the name to that, or at least adding the Provides: for
Fedora Extras compatibility.

Comment 1 Jonathan Blandford 2005-02-23 21:25:01 UTC
Sounds reasonable, though I don't know the history of why that's the case.

Comment 2 Ville Skyttä 2005-03-02 21:17:38 UTC
Thanks.

I think "consistency" is the keyword of the answer to that "why" question.
