apprecommender uses python-numpy in its apprec-apt tool which is
called from an APT hook before apt installs or deinstalls any
packages. There it bails out like this on amd64:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/apprec-apt", line 11, in <module>
    load_entry_point('apprecommender==0.7.5', 'console_scripts', 'apprec-apt')()

    from .mtrand import *
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/numpy/random/mtrand.x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: PyFPE_jbuf
E: Sub-process [ ! -x /usr/bin/apprec-apt ] || apprec-apt --pre-install-pkgs returned an error code (1)
E: Failure running script [ ! -x /usr/bin/apprec-apt ] || apprec-apt --pre-install-pkgs

This prevents any further installation or uninstallation of packages
with apt, aptitude, etc. without fiddling with hook configurations or
using dpkg to purge apprecommender.
