"python-numpy" needs to be a propagated-input, since it is imported by
the installed library.  Otherwise packages using the websockify library
won't be able to find 'numpy'.

I noticed this package has a '.travis.yml' that runs 'python setup.py
nosetests' for tests -- currently the 'check' phase just prints "Ran 0
tests in 0.00s".  Can you try overriding the check phase with one that
runs the same command?

Indeed version 3 only.

Can you send an updated patch please? :)
