[Python-modules-team] Bug#717100: oddly reports 1.8.0.dev version instead of 1.7.1

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

Package: python3-numpy
Version: 1:1.7.1-2
Severity: minor

$> python3 -c 'import numpy; print(numpy.__version__)' 
1.8.0.dev-Unknown

$> python -c 'import numpy; print(numpy.__version__)' 
1.7.1

just confused me and others for a bit:
