Bug#874362: python-tables: >3.3.0 version of PyTables would be great

[Mark Carroll]

Package: python-tables
Version: 3.3.0-5
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

I am running into https://github.com/PyTables/PyTables/issues/598 which is
fixed in PyTables 3.4.x. However, at present even sid offers only 3.3.0.

The workaround of installing with "pip" instead works fine.

Cheers,

Mark
