Oct2Py is a means to seamlessly call M-files and Octave functions from Python.
It manages the Octave session for you, sharing data behind the scenes using MAT
files.

New release of IPython 2.0 could make use of it.

Hi I've packaged oct2py already. I've made a request to
the Python Team looking for some sponsor.

If you are interested, the package is on mentors[0]

Cheers

Hi, I've been working on this package. The sad part
is that there is an issue with the latest Oct2py version and the
latest GNU Octave Version on Sid

The problem is that the latest version of GNU Octave on Debian Sid has a known
issue, some unit tests fail with this version. It seems that upstream will be
fixing it soon. [0] .

The package is almost totally debianized I’m just waiting for the previous issue
to be resolved

You can check it on the Debian Python Modules Team VCS [1]

thanks

Hi,

A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging oct2py. Unfortunately,
it seems that it did not happen. In Debian, we try not to keep ITP bugs open
for a too long time, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to
refrain from packaging the software.

This is an automatic email to change the status of oct2py from ITP
(Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen
any activity during the last 12 months.

If you are still interested in packaging oct2py, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

 retitle 743499 ITP: oct2py -- GNU Octave to Python bridge
 owner 743499 !
 thanks

It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to
time, by mailing <743499@bugs.debian.org>.  If you need guidance on how to
package this software, please reply to this email, and/or contact the
debian-mentors@lists.debian.org mailing list.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
