Bug#961314: ITP: python3-s2sphere -- Python implementation of a part of the C++ S2 geometry library

[Christoph Anton Mitterer <calestyo@scientia.net>]

Hey.

An update on this... it seems to me, that s2sphere is in fact rathe
runmaintained... and it also seems that s2geometry (with it's Python
bindings) is that canonical library (and the bindings seem far more
complete).

I've even ported my own program in the meantime from s2sphere to the
Python SWIG bindings from s2geometry.

Building of these is pretty simple... uses CMake, all dependencies seem
to be in Debian already.

So I'd guess it would rather make sense to package s2geometry, and not
s2sphere.


Cheers,
Chris.
