Umm... the qutip package already exists....

The setup of the new source package `python-qutip` is not really
required, but it is my first package and I like to build it up from
scratch.  Additionally I'm not happy with the branch structure of the
Git-repository `qutip`.

Instead, for the Git-repository `python-qutip` I plan to use a clone
of the upstream Git-repository configured with 2 Git-remotes: origin
and upstream.  Instead of importing new tarballs into the branch
`upstream` it is just needed to pull the master branch from the
Git-remote `upstream`.  Then the Git-tag `vX.Y.Z` can be duplicated as
Git-tag `upstream/X.Y.Z`.  Followed by a merge into the Git-branch
`debian` which is the default branch of the Git-repository.  After
adapting `debian/changelog`, etc Git-tag `debian/X.Y.Z-revision` can
be set.

Greets,
Dirk =)
