The version of pydap currently packaged is too old to work with the compass, first because version 3.x apparently changed the module API from using `import dap` to `import pydap`. I saw the following bug report [2] requesting an update of the package, but it was not acted upon or acknowledged. I am thereby contacting you to know whether the package was still actively maintained on your end. If you have lost interest in maintaining this package, myself and the Debian Science Team would be interested in taking over, since both hdf-compass and pydap are science related. Otherwise, please allow me to request an update to this package so I can carry on with my packaging work on hdf-compass.
