[Python-modules-team] Bug#703585: [pyopengl] run-time warning: "No Numeric module present: No module named Numeric"

[Dmitry Smirnov]

Package: pyopengl
Version: 3.0.1-1
Severity: minor

I wonder if run-time warnings like the following can be avoided:

	Unable to load registered array format handler numeric:
	Traceback (most recent call last):
	  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/OpenGL/arrays/formathandler.py", line 44, in loadPlugin
	    plugin_class = entrypoint.load()
	  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/OpenGL/plugins.py", line 14, in load
	    return importByName( self.import_path )
	  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/OpenGL/plugins.py", line 28, in importByName
	    module = __import__( ".".join(moduleName), {}, {}, moduleName)
	  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/OpenGL/arrays/numeric.py", line 15, in <module>
	    raise ImportError( """No Numeric module present: %s"""%(err))
	ImportError: No Numeric module present: No module named Numeric

Long time ago python-numeric was removed from Debian (#546570)
in favour of python-numpy so perhaps the above warning regarding
lack of "numeric" module in nothing but confusing.

It this a legacy compatibility issue? 

Thanks.

All the best,
