[Lucas Nussbaum]

Source: python-cogent
Version: 1.9-8
Severity: serious

Justification: FTBFS on amd64

Hi,

During a rebuild of all packages in sid, your package failed to build on
amd64.

Relevant part (hopefully):
>     a = split_dimension(m, 0)
>   File "/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/cogent/util/array.py", line 504, in split_dimension
>     return reshape(m, new_dim)
>   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/numpy/core/fromnumeric.py", line 232, in reshape
>     return _wrapfunc(a, 'reshape', newshape, order=order)
>   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/numpy/core/fromnumeric.py", line 67, in _wrapfunc
>     return _wrapit(obj, method, *args, **kwds)
>   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/numpy/core/fromnumeric.py", line 47, in _wrapit
>     result = getattr(asarray(obj), method)(*args, **kwds)
> TypeError: 'numpy.float64' object cannot be interpreted as an index

About the archive rebuild: The rebuild was done on EC2 VM instances from
Amazon Web Services, using a clean, minimal and up-to-date chroot. Every
failed build was retried once to eliminate random failures.
