Please consider packaging skypy for Debian

[olebole]

Hi,

I am a member of the Debian Astro Team. Our aim is to package astronomical software for Debian, from where it will also migrate to derivative distributions like Ubuntu or Mint. Would you consider packaging skypy for Debian? This would ease the installation of the software on those systems and help people keeping it updated. So, it can broaden your user base.

If you would package it, we would be glad to help you when you run into problems. Once the package is ready, we could upload it to the Debian archive. We have a mailing list, which I would recommend to subscribe, since this is our main information exchange. Please feel free to contact me on any questions or comments.

Best regards

Ole (shamelessly using the "Bug" template and removing its structure... :-) )

Hi @olebole thanks for making us aware of the Debian Astro package. Since SkyPy is still under heavy development I think it would be sensible to wait until we have a 1.0 release and then we will get back in contact with you to contribute a Debian package.
