[Python-modules-team] Bug#863050: Please update to newer version

Sat May 20 20:28:31 UTC 2017

Package: python-jpype
Version: 0.5.4.2-3+b1

The newest version of Jpype in Debian is currently 0.5.4.2, which is
from 2011. The latest upstream version is 0.6.2, which is from 2017.
Some Python packages (e.g. JayDeBeApi) require a newer version of Jpype
than the one in Debian. There's also Python 3 support since 2015.

I notice that the watch file points to Sourceforge. Jpype has moved to
Github [1] some time ago.

Please update the watch and the package so that we can enjoy Jpype's
new features and bug fixes straight from Debian.
