(Get the code!)
Ubuntu already lists python-numpy as a Recommends (same as is done for python-xml, as per bug 115589. I assume other Linux distros will also update their depends accordingly if they've not already.
The Windows packages will need to be updated to also include this, if they don't already. I'll subscribe Ishmal for that.
Someone should test on OSX as well.
Ultimately, a much better solution than brute forcing this at the package layer, would be for the Inkscape extension warning/error dialogs to tell the user to install the requisite dependencies in order to make it work. Perhaps the inkex file format needs to be modified to include some sort of dependency checking functionality? Ted, what do you think?
