[Pkg-raspi-maintainers] Bug#856413: gpiozero: please provide python module on all architectures

[Nick Morrott]

I'm currently packaging Mu [1] and its missing dependencies for
Debian, and the question of remote GPIO pin control has arisen.

  [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=901461

Mu declares gpiozero and pigpio as dependencies. gpiozero can be used
with pigpio on a remote system to control GPIO on a Raspberry Pi.

Making gpiozero available on all possible platforms (rather than just
arm*) is therefore instrumental in providing support for remote GPIO
control.

Please could you make gpiozero available for all arches?


(Note: as we don't yet have pigpio packaged in Debian I have created an RFP [2])

Many thanks,
