[Python-modules-team] Bug#776604: basemap: Missing support for python3

[Eike von Seggern]

Source: basemap
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainers,

since the matplotib is available for Python 3 it would be nice if also
basemap would be supported for python 3. According to the documentation,
it only requires Python 2.4 (or later) [1].

If would be very greatful, if you could add this to sid.

Kind regards,
Eike
