  Description     : System V InterProcess Communication for Python/Yorick

This souce package will build the following binary packages:

yorick-svipc
python-svipc
python3-svipc

The 3 packages expose SysV IPC functionalities to the corresponding
interpreter:

 - shared memory;
 - semaphores;
 - message queues.

This package is used (for instance by yorick-yao, already packaged) for
parallel (mutliprocess) computing and for mixed yorick/python applications.

Regards, Thibaut.
