[Python-modules-team] Bug#519483: python-numpy: Warning -> DeprecationWarning in numpy.histogram

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

Package: python-numpy
Version: 1:1.2.1-1
Severity: minor


Just trying to come up with more or less clean solution to suppress deprecation
warnings "kindly" puking on me from different corners of numpy ;)

Ran into numpy.histogram which issues regular Warning instead of DeprecationWarning in 
function_base.py:266:

        warnings.warn("""
        The original semantics of histogram is scheduled to be
        deprecated in NumPy 1.3. The new semantics fixes
        long-standing issues with outliers handling. The main
        changes concern
        1. the definition of the bin edges,
           now including the rightmost edge, and
        2. the handling of upper outliers,
           now ignored rather than tallied in the rightmost bin.

        Please read the docstring for more information.
