Hi Muammar, The reason for that it's not in, is because of the dependency on protobuf 3.0, which is not yet in Debian. See https://bugs.debian.org/795841
However, I made an attempt now today to restore protobuf 2 support in the newest pychromecast version. You can have a look here: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/python-modules/packages/pychromecast.git/log/?h=before_protobuf3_in_debian or clone with: git clone https://anonscm.debian.org/git/python-modules/packages/pychromecast.git -b before_protobuf3_in_debian Perhaps we could get that into Debian. Note that we can only make Python 2 packages since python-protobuf is only for Python 2 so far.
