Hi,

I'm about to upload the FIAT package to Debian but I have some
questions/comments regarding the fiat-0.9.0.tar.gz tarball:

* In FIAT/derivs there is a LICENSE file containing the CeCILL-C
license. Are the files in this folder (Derivatives.py and
FirstDerivatives.py) released under this license? Who has the
copyright for those files? Konrad Hinsen seems to be the author.

* The Python interpreter in FIAT/ascii2vtk*.py is #!/sw/bin/python and
I get (lintian) errors on the generated packages:

    E: python-fiat: wrong-path-for-interpreter
./usr/share/pyshared/FIAT/asci2vtk2d.py (#!/sw/bin/python !=
/usr/bin/python)
    E: python-fiat: wrong-path-for-interpreter
./usr/share/pyshared/FIAT/asci2vtk3d.py (#!/sw/bin/python !=
/usr/bin/python)

I have patched these files to use #!/usr/bin/env python instead to get
around this issue.

* There are .pyc files in FIAT/derivs. They are also in the bazaar
repository. It would be good to remove them.

* Version in setup.py is 3.3.0.

* There are some .py files in the root folder and some of them are
duplicates of files in the FIAT subfolder (ascii2vtk*.py, tablag.py).
