  Description     : Platform independent python bindings for the LZMA compression library

There was an old ITP about this software (#401034) which has been
closed automatically due to no progress, I've no idea how far the
packaging work has gone.

Beside other things, pylzma support is needed to support .deb
containing LZMA-compressed parts in python-debian (see ##503983).

TIA,
Cheers.
