Debian Astro Python packages

Python 2 packages for astronomy

This metapackage will install Python 2 packages for astronomy. The packages can be used for interactive analysis, or to create specific programs.

Note that Python 2 is legacy only, Python 3 is the present and future of the language. The support for Python 2 will end in 2020. Please use Python 2 only if you don't have a choice.
