sandbox directory has no subfolders

[Sebastian Busch]

When installing scipy by "sudo aptitude install python-scipy", the folder '/usr/share/pyshared/scipy/sandbox/' has no subfolders. This is not yet the case in http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/python-scipy/python-scipy_0.6.0.orig.tar.gz . The subpackages seem to get lost somewhere on the way...

I would highly appreciate to have sand in the box!

Best regards,
Sebastian.

Sandbox removed upstream.

Sandbox Removed
---------------
While porting SciPy to NumPy in 2005, several packages and modules
were moved into ``scipy.sandbox``. The sandbox was a staging ground
for packages that were undergoing rapid development and whose APIs
were in flux. It was also a place where broken code could live. The
sandbox has served its purpose well, but was starting to create
confusion. Thus ``scipy.sandbox`` was removed. Most of the code was
moved into ``scipy``, some code was made into a ``scikit``, and the
remaining code was just deleted, as the functionality had been
replaced by other code.
