Bug#901487: theano.gpuarray unusable - needs newer pygpu

[Rebecca N. Palmer]

Package: python3-pygpu,python3-theano

theano.gpuarray does not work because the currently packaged version of 
pygpu is too old for it.

Is there a reason for not packaging 0.7.x or have you just not got 
around to it?  According to codesearch, theano is the only package using 
pygpu, so compatibility does not appear to be a blocker.

 >>> import theano.gpuarray
ERROR (theano.gpuarray): Could not initialize pygpu, support disabled
