I'm a PP and I've helped with several of Lubo's pacakges in the past.
I'm willing to help with this if you like.
That would be much appreciated, but it was meant to be more of a general
question about what the procedure is for blocking FTBFS packages.
Anyhow, if you're happy to apply the fix and Lubo doesn't mind, I sure
won't complain. A number of my students love numptyphysics and I'd hate
to see it lost.
