No module named convolve

Binary package hint: python-scipy

There appears to be nothing in the scipy.stsci subpackage:

    Python 2.6.2 (release26-maint, Apr 19 2009, 01:56:41)

    object? -> Details about 'object'. ?object also works, ?? prints more.

Works fine on my Windows machine:

Does not work on https://sagenb.kaist.ac.kr:8022/, which uses Ubuntu 9.04:

Why "won't fix"? the package is missing.

[Scott Howard (showard314)]

This package is still listed as "New" in Ubuntu. The authors of scipy have labeled it as "won't fix". See the linked bug report:
http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/ticket/987

"Convolve has been removed from scipy. You can download it from STScI as part of STSCI_PTYHON from this location:

http://www.stsci.edu/resources/software_hardware/pyraf/stsci_python/current/download "

Discussion about the upstream status should take place here:
http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/ticket/987

[Endolith (endolith)]

The convolve package was removed from SciPy for not being maintained. It's still available in stsci Python, though.

The wontfix is for the upstream bug, so I'd suggest asking on the Scipy bug
tracker.
