is your effort somehow related to http://packages.debian.org/experimental/python/python2.3-numpy ?

it is a bit out of date, but already in experimental. I did have a look at their packaging infrastructure. It was breaking for me with numpy-0.9.8, so I started my debian/rules from scratch (and tried several methods along the way -- both debhelper and cdbs based). Now, upon re-looking at their debian/rules which is also cdbs based, I can see they have some nice code I should use (regarding installation of documentation and f2py). I'll try to integrate their changes into my next release. At that point I may simply be maintaining a more up-to-date version of theirs.

They also package new scipy. I'll see if I can leverage their efforts when I try to package that.
