Thanks for the bug report. We just uploaded a new revision, that makes scipy
installable again with python-numpy. Also, new gfortran based
suitesparse, which scipy depends on,
will be uploaded to unstable either today or tomorrow. When it enters unstable,
we'll rebuild scipy against this new suitesparse and upload a new
revision of scipy.

This should fix this bug.
