py27-numeric is replaced by py24-numeric ???

[JP Glutting]

No, I don't understand it either. In fact, I am not sure why Reportlab or
Biopython depend on numeric, if anything is should be numpy (there may be
some issues I don't understand, but Reportlab should only depend on the
PIL: http://www.reportlab.com/software/installation/ ). I don't really want
numeric, it is old and has been pretty much replaced by numpy, as far as I
am aware. Biopython specifically mentions NumPy, and Reportlab doesn't
mention either.
