[Debian-astro-maintainers] Bug#891203: astropy-utils: Please package the showtable script

[Ole Streicher]

Thanks for the report, and for the manpage.

/usr/bin/showtable actually conflicts with libdata-showtable-perl. I am
not really happy to use the ".py" suffix for the rename, since usually
utilities should not have language specific suffixes. Instead. I opened
an upstream issue

https://github.com/astropy/astropy/issues/7233

Let's see where this goes.

showtable.1 in casacore-utils however referred to a binary that was
renamed to "showtableinfo" at some time; I just forgot to remove the
manpage. This will be fixed with the next upload of casacore.

Best

Ole
