Package: python-scipy
Version: 0.6.0-5.1
Severity: minor
Docstring for leastsq incorrectly describes the returned variable
ier. It states,
ier -- an integer flag. If it is equal to 1 the solution was
found. If it is not equal to 1, the solution was not
found and the following message gives more information.
This is correct for "fsolve"; however, for leastsq, ier values of 1, 2,
3 and 4 all indicate no errors (see the definition of "errors" within
the function in
/usr/share/pycentral/python-scipy/site-packages/scipy/optimize/minpack.py).
Regards,
Andrzej
