Comment:

 Yep, {{{py-scientific}}} has not seen a release since 2018 and
 [http://dirac.cnrs-orleans.fr/ScientificPython/ upstream] states:
 {{{
 Note: The scientific Python ecosystem is changing at a rapid pace, without
 maintaining compatibility with older versions.
 Since the beginning of ScientificPython development in 1995, there have
 been important changes to the Python language
 itself between Python 2.7 and Python 3, and also a large number of smaller
 incompatible changes to the NumPy library that
 ScientificPython depends on. ScientificPython has not been adapted to
 these changes, because we do not have any resources
 for software development. Therefore ScientificPython can be used only with
 Python 2.7 and NumPy 1.8, but not with later
 releases of either software.
 }}}

 the port has no dependents:
 {{{
 > port echo depends:py27-scientific
 py-scientific
 }}}

 and we will not add a NumPy 1.8 port for it; so IMHO {{{py-scientific}}}
 should just be removed.
