The package builds a Cython interface to a small C++ library, which 
itself is only a set of headers and is included with the sources.

I was a bit too lazy to create the plain C++ packages first, e.g. 
libgdist & libgdist-dev, but I would be happy to do this if it is
necessary or preferred. Opinion(s)?

Thanks for the further suggestions; I will continue working on the
package and report back when on the mentors site.


Cheers,
