[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#844085: Please replace pyfits by astropy.io.fits

[Ole Streicher]

Source: pyscanfcs
Version: 0.2.3-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Dear maintainer,

the package depends on the "python-pyfits" package which is obsolete
today and will not see any further development upstream. I am going to
create a bug against pyfits asking to remove it from Debian.

The "python-astropy" package is the designated successor and provides a
drop-in replacement for pyfits. The attached patch does the necessary
replacement.

Best regards

Ole
