[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#742921: python-htseq: python.numpy dtype size error

[Diane Trout]

Hello,

I finally managed to fix this bug.

python-numpy provides dh_numpy that will insert a python-numpy-abi$VERSION 
into the python dependencies to make it more obvious when a package needs to 
be recompiled for a new change in numpy's abi.

All the fixes necessary to implement that are in debian git.

Unfortunately I also figured out how to run upstream's test cases and a few of 
those test cases are failing. I've gone ahead and emailed upstream to ask 
about them.

I passed Henry a current local build of python-htseq for his testing. (We work 
in the same lab).
