[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#872222: python-biopython: broken symlinks

[Peter Cock]

As part of Biopython 1.69 we renamed the extension-less text files to
*.rst and created symlinks intended for backward compatibility:

https://github.com/biopython/biopython/commit/91e7eb02c2bbc1b91949171947b226c9fa09ace2

https://github.com/biopython/biopython/commit/4677c7def7e906ae2494dfcc4ecd590f46050366

Both the *.rst files and the symlinks should be included in the
Biopython release tar-ball via our MANIFEST.in file:

https://github.com/biopython/biopython/commit/9e7a01dbd88d239c0efc397f924cbbc65d6ac8ee

My guess is that Debian needs to move/copy the new *.rst files now (eg
NEWS.rst), in addition to or instead of the old names which are now
symlinks (eg NEWS).

(As some point I'd be happy to remove the symlinks)
