Request for packaging - Nuitka the Python Compiler

[Kay Hayen <kayhayen@gmx.de>]

Hello,

I am the upstream developer of Nuitka and am seeking somebody to package 
Nuitka for Debian.

It's a Python compiler with near complete and unprecedented compatibility:

http://www.nuitka.net/blog/nuitka-a-python-compiler/what-is-nuitka/

I have recently adopted a "git flow" model, where I now support a stable 
release, plus generally the project is nearing the point of being useful.

Check it out from here:

git clone http://git.nuitka.net/Nuitka.git

The develop branch is further ahead with documentation, otherwise it is 
supposed to be useful.

I am willing to make changes as you indicate necessary. I had the chance 
to talk with "Jan Dittberner" during recent PyCON DE and he encouraged 
me to post here.

Please have a look, let me know what problems you see, and feel free to 
point me to solutions.

I currently only expect troubles from my use of environment variables 
over "__file__" relativeness. I have no idea how Nuitka or any code 
should access "files nearly", so I am using environment variables to 
find their directory.

Let me say, that I am now a developer using Debian for more than 10 
years and thrilled at the perspective to myself as an upstream.

I do my development work on Debian Testing and I will be more than 
willing to apply changes to make the packaging easy. That is also why I 
would ask you to use the "develop" branch, because that's where I can 
make these changes.

Thanks in advance,
Kay
