[Debian-astro-maintainers] Bug#849502: [src:python-astropy] Use of embedded external libraries

[Vincent Prat]

Package: src:python-astropy
Version: 1.3-2
Severity: normal
Control: affects -1 astroquery

Astropy ships its own copies of some external libraries (ConfigObj, PLY,
pytest, Six, jQuery, DataTables) that are already available in Debian.
Debian Astropy packages should instead use the system libraries.
A consequence of this is that some CI tests of affiliated packages may
fail (see e.g.
https://ci.debian.net/data/packages/unstable/amd64/a/astroquery/20161227_173008.autopkgtest.log.gz).
