  Description     : Library for calculating distances between sequences

 This Python library can calculate the distance between sequences or strings
 using over 30 algorithms.  It is a pure Python implementation, but can make
 use of other libraries (listed as Suggests, some of which have compiled
 extensions) for increased speed.


 This package is a dependency of the new Spyder 4.x series, hence the
 need to package it.

 This package will be maintained within the Debian Python Team.
