Bug#1005267: ITP: python-bytecode -- Python module to generate, modify and optimize Python bytecode

  Description     : Python module to generate, modify and optimize Python bytecode

The bytecode module can be used to write Python bytecode directly and
then convert it into executable Python statements.  It also provides a
pure Python implementation of the Peephole Optimizer introduced in
CPython 3.6.


This Python module was vendored by the pydevd developers, and having a
standalone version of the module will avoid having the embedded module
in pydevd.  (And pydevd turns out to be a recursive dependency of
Spyder....)  The Debian version of this package will therefore require
the pydevd patch; this enhances the bytecode functionality if it is
used (via an optional argument) but has no effect otherwise.

It will be maintained within the Debian Python Team.
