Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-python@lists.debian.org, barlow.jim@gmail.com
Control: affects -1 src:pikepdf

I request an adoptor for the pikepdf package.  It would be better if
someone with more knowledge of either or both Python and PDFs were to
maintain it.  I have also filed an RFA for ocrmypdf, the most important
reverse dependency.

The package description is:
 pikepdf is a Python library to read and write PDFs with QPDF.
 Features include:
 .
   * Editing, manipulation and transformation of existing PDFs
   * Based on the mature, proven QPDF C++ library
   * Works with encrypted PDFs
   * Supports all PDF compression filters
   * Can create "fast web view" (linearized) PDFs
   * Creates standards compliant PDFs that pass validation in other tools
   * Automatically repairs damaged PDFs, just like QPDF
   * Implements more of the PDF specification than existing Python PDF tools
   * IPython notebook and Jupyter integration
