README.source
-------------
The PyTables project provides two kinds of source packages:
* the "official" source tarball also includes the pre-built HTML and PDF
documentation and is the available at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pytables/files/pytables/
or
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/tables
* the "pure source" distribution, instead, only includes sources for the
python package and extensions and for documentation (sphinx [1] based
documentation in reStructuredText format).
The "pure source" distribution is only available on GitHub and it is
generated from the source code repository tags:
https://github.com/PyTables/PyTables/releases
The debian package for PyTables uses the "pure source" distribution in order
to make it easier to manage stuffs related to sphinx [1] documentation
management.
The PyTables source tree includes an internal copy of c-blosc [2] and
(starting from version 3.1) a copy of the zlib [3], lz4 [4] and snappy [5]
compression libraries.
Apart for c-blosc, for which no debian package is available at the moment,
the debian package for PyTables does not use the internal copy of the
compressors. It links the system version of that libraries.
