(Apologies if this is double-sent, the first attempt appears to have been dropped somewhere).

GPereira [1] filed an orphan request for python-numpy-stl [2]:

This packages has been broken for 4 months now (see comment section) and the maintainer does not answer messages

In the last package update in June I added the missing xorg-server-xvfb dependency reported in May (which I assume is the comment being referred to) to the checkdepends array. I don't believe it needs to be in the main depends or makedepends. I have just built the package in a clean chroot without problems, including running the tests. If you are having problems building the package, please post some details rather than filing an orphan request. -- bcb
