xeus kernel packaging

[Bill Allombert <ballombe@debian.org>]

Hello Debian Science,

I am looking at xpython as an example of packaging a xeus kernel.

It defines 4 packages:

Package: xeus-python-dev
Package: libxeus-python0
Package: xpython
Package: python3-xeus-python-shell

Is libxeus-python0 / xeus-python-dev really needed ? Maybe this one is a
special case, but in general I would expect xpython and
python3-xeus-python-shell to be the only ones used.

There is even an cmake option to disable building the shared library:
OPTION(XPYT_BUILD_SHARED "Split xpython build into executable and library" ON)

Cheers,
