[Debian-astro-maintainers] Bug#1051927: aoflagger: Python library not included in Debian package

[André Offringa]

Package: aoflagger
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: offringa at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

The AOFlagger software provides a Python interface that users can use to flag
data from Python. However, the Debian AOFlagger package does not include the
Python library for AOFlagger. I get quite some questions about people that
would like to use the Python interface and get confused that they can't do
`import aoflagger` after having installed the Debian package, so it would be
great if this could be fixed. If changes are needed upstream I'm happy to make
these, but I suspect it's just a packaging issue.

Thanks,
André
