[DebianGIS-dev] Bug#373461: [DebianGIS] present situation

#committed mapscript python transition to debian-gis cvs
reassign 360576 mapserver
merge 360576 373461
tags 373461 + pending

To python-transition folks: please don't NMU gdal or mapserver, gdal
needs to go through a transition of its own - an ABI transition due to a
new upstream. A patch for gdal is welcome, but the changes for mapserver
are committed to debian-gis CVS.

Haven't done this yet. It uses autoconf to detect the python stuff, so
we can't use the standard recipes provided by the transition
coordinators.

I've done this and committed the results to CVS. My "import mapscript"
test says it worked, others should test too.
