Bug Description
z3c.pt is a fast implementation of the ZPT template engine for Zope 3 which uses Chameleon to compile templates to byte-code.
It is an alternative to zope.app.
SchoolTool (the primary user of Zope libraries in Ubuntu) is not yet compatible with it, but we would like to have the possibility to switch template engine to a faster one.
z3c.ptcompat 1.0 that has already been uploaded, depends on it (previously it was optional). But z3c.ptcompat itself is no longer required by anything, so nothing is broken.
The packaging is done and is uploaded to the SchoolTool PPA:

As the prospective maintainer of this package for Ubuntu, I think it would make sense for the benefit of everyone if this could be uploaded to Debian first and then copied to Ubuntu like most other packages.
You can do this fairly easily by first opening an ITP bug in Debian against the wnpp pseudo-package, preparing pretty much the same package and sending an email to the debian-mentors mailing list after making sure it builds and runs properly and uploading the source package somewhere. There's more information on how to do the ITP bug here: http:// www.debian. org/devel/ wnpp/ and about getting new packages in Debian generally here: http:// mentors. debian. net/.
