Bug#994882: ITS: vitables

[Benda Xu]

Package: vitables
Version: 3.0.2-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: Debian Science Maintainers <debian-science-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org>, Dmitrijs Ledkovs <dmitrij.ledkov at gmail.com>, Picca Frédéric-Emmanuel <picca at debian.org>

Dear Maintainer,

I am interested in co-maintaining vitables by joining the science team
and appending myself as an uploader.

The newest version (3.0.0-1.1) was NMU-ed and has not been included in
the package Vcs for more than a year. Bug 966056 (a year old) prevents
the version in bullseye to function if python3-sip is not installed. I
think the current uploads need help.

I have contributed to the present 3.0.0-1 release in 2019 and I would
like to support packaging vitables in the long run, as I am an active
user of it and giving my lectures with it.

The diff is in the merge request:

Thanks for your consideration!
Benda
