[Pkg-scicomp-devel] Bug#500872: python-openturns: Missing r-rot package

[Jerome Robert]

Package: python-openturns
Version: 0.12.1-4
Severity: important

Openturns features which require R are not available. This is because the r-rot
package is missing. The source code of the r-rot package is available in the
openturns archive/repository in th
e utils/rotRPackage/ directory.

With r-rot package installed the following script should no longer return an
error:
