Bug#597202: ITP: kstars-data-extra-tycho2 -- Contains the Tycho2 star catalog for centralized install, avoiding per-user install

[Noel David Torres Taño <envite@rolamasao.org>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: "Noel David Torres Taño" <envite@rolamasao.org>


Actually kstars offer each user to download some data, from the net, which causes bandwith and disk waste (See #596007). I will package one of those datafiles (one of the catalogs) to avoid that, and I want to package the remaining afterwards.

  Description     : Contains the Tycho2 star catalog for centralized install, avoiding per-user install

This package contains the data of the Tycho 2 star catalog that kstars would otherwise offer the user to download. Installing this package avoids the need for the users to each one download the catalog for itself. It is configurable if you want the users to be unable to do those downloads.
