Re: Please backport Python scikit learn, pandas and seaborn

[Andres Cimmarusti <acimmarusti@gmail.com>]

Hi,

(sorry if you are getting this message again, the first time it was
rejected from the debian-backports mailing list)

These popular data analysis python modules are quite old now in
jessie. There are many new features in the newer packages. Would it
possible to prepare official backports for them?

python-scikits-learn
python3-scikits-learn

python-pandas
python3-pandas

python-seaborn
python3-seaborn

I haven't tried building them myself from testing, but at first
glance, it looks like the only other package that would need to be
backported would be:

python-joblib

Hope this is not too much to ask. I will see if I find sometime to try
building these these from the testing source and report back on
failure or success.

Thanks,
Andrés
