  Description     : official Python bindings for Blosc

Blosc [1] is a meta-compressor library which carries out the actual
compression/decompression in the processor cache. This is the official
Python bindings package.

I'm going to maintain this within the DPMT. The binary is going to be
python3-blosc (maybe also a Python 2 package).

Thanks,
DS
