New python-pylucene Debian package, please test and criticize
(from a discussion in the list for the development of Pootle, an
online translation tool which optionnally makes use of pyLucene and is
planned to be used for the i18n infrastructure of Debian)
Quoting Leonardo Fontenelle (leo.fontenelle@gmail.com):

Even if the former discussion has shown that a direct benefit for
Pootle is not obvious, I have built a preliminary package for PyLucene
and Debian etch.
It is derived from Brett Parker's package built a while ago for
sarge.Brett is CC'ed to this mail.
Please find it at http://www.perrier.eu.org/debian/packages
There is merely *no* chance that this makes it into Debian etch (too
late), but having a solid basis could help for the future.
Please note that I am in no ay a specialist of Python stuff, so a look
from people in the Python team with regards to the Python policy would
help a lot...:-)
My intent is certainly not maintaining this myself, but more to
provide a good basis to someone with more knowledge of the software itself.
