* Package name: python-pymeasure
  Version : 0.4.3
  Upstream Author : PyMeasure Developers
* URL : https://github.com/ralph-group/pymeasure

  Description : scientific measurement library for Python

Long-Description:
 PyMeasure makes scientific measurements easy to set up and run. The
 package contains a repository of instrument classes and a system for
 running experiment procedures, which provides graphical interfaces for
 graphing live data and managing queues of experiments. Both parts of the
 package are independent, and when combined provide all the necessary
 requirements for advanced measurements with only limited coding.

This package will be co-maintained by the Debian Science Team.

Sounds like this duplicates the existing python-serial package.

The problem is that point releases with fixes for CVEs can also
introduce regressions (#855103, introduced in 2.14.4). That one was
fixed quickly, though, but that's why I was asking.
