Description Alejandro Hernandez 2019-05-15 21:45:29 UTC 
Both python-numpy and python3-numpy try to install the file:

${D}/${bindir}/f2py

which causes an error during do_rootfs since the package manager complains about that.

The numpy packages create basically copies of f2py script with the following names:
f2py (on both)
f2py2 (on python 2)
f2py2.7 (on python 2)
f2py3 (on python 3)
f2py3.7 (on python 3)

IIRC, we had a similar issue with pip and pip3, in which we favored in keeping the python3 version as is and simply deleted the file on the python2 version since it was basically harmless.
