In ports tree math/py-numpy contains the latest release.

This repository is now hosted on Bitbucket, [1].

If you want test my "wip" port (mutlimedia/pitivi-wip, 0.94 is not stable release), it requires PR196696 [3] too).

Long time ago, I submitted patch to update multimedia/pitivi to 0.15.2 (PR172366 [2]), it was never committed.

Pitivi requires some Python3 modules, and we need BUILD_DEPENDS macro (instead RUN_DEPENDS) otherwise these modules are not build with Python3.

I know scimath is not needed, but NumPy seems broken (I got same problem with Linux).

There's one issue when applications are written in Python3 and use GObject Introspection. UTF-8 is mandatory (we can use workaround, which re-defines locale environment), otherwise applications crash, mostly with gettext.
