I don't think this is a problem, me or Sebastiaan could sponsor you for sure. > Also, I will be very very busy for the next 2-3 weeks, so having the package > ready could take some time.

Unfortunately upstream did not updated both PyPi or Github yet, there is only the tarball of the alpha release on SourceForge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/geographiclib/files/distrib-Python/ Maybe upstream will update later but if you want to package the alpha version for experimental you can take the tarball there. > I need to understand what is the best way to proceed for the new standalone > python package. For the initial scaffolding of a python package you can take a look at stdeb: https://packages.debian.org/source/sid/stdeb You will have to review and manually fix stuff but it's a start. Otherwise since geographiclib package right now build and install also the python binding, you can just take the parts related to the python binding.
