Package: python3-vtk9
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
would it be possible to add the metadata vtk-9.x.x.dist-info to the files
installed by python3-vtk9?
A few users I know have fallen in the following pitfall:
1) install vtk9 from debian
2) then, a few months later, forgot whether they had install vtk or not. To
check, they run "pip show vtk"
3) since metadata are currently missing, "pip show vtk" will say that vtk is not
installed, and users then proceed to (potentially messing up their systems
with)
"pip install vtk"
Thanks,
Francesco

Changes:
vtk9 (9.6.2+dfsg1-1exp1) experimental; urgency=medium
.
* Team upload.
* New upstream release. New ABI 9.6
- applies debian patches 40_viskores.patch,
findEXPAT_version_fix_MR12826.patch,
numpy_drop_in1d_MR12693.patch
- provides vtkWrapJavaScript-9.6 executable (in vtk9 package)
and pkgconfig file for viskores (in libvtk9-dev)
- replaces ThirdParty/h5part with ThirdParty/h5hut
(still licensed with BSD-3-clause-notice-2)
* provide debian/python3-vtk9.pydist to declare python3-vtk9 as
python package vtk. Closes: #1096135
* Depends: libmariadb-dev rather than default-libmysqlclient-dev
mariaDB has sufficiently evolved from mySQL to stop claiming
compatibility. Note that VTK9 nevertheless still treats mariaDB as
a substitute for mySQL. Activate SQL support by configuring modules
IO::SQL and IO::MySQL. Interface with QtSQL with GUISupportQtSQL=YES
Closes: #1137152
* Build-Depends: libpq-dev and configure IO::PostgreSQL module
to activate PostgreSQL support
* use external exprtk (VTK_MODULE_USE_EXTERNAL_VTK_exprtk:BOOL=ON)
Build-Depends: libexprtk-dev. Closes: #1094438
debian/copyright: Files-Excluded: ThirdParty/exprtk/vtkexprtk
* drop patch version from name of manpages
* libvtk9.6-qt: drop redundant Breaks: Provides: Replaces: libvtk9.1-qt
