    Description : Python bindings for libkdumpfile

    Python bindings for libkdumpfile.

    This used to be part of libkdumpfile itself, but is removed right after libkdumpfile 0.5.5 was cut:

    https://github.com/ptesarik/libkdumpfile/commit/40c9ff981f1f3bd968af37a50b50c3478d8267cd

    I intend to build this in experimental against the libkdumpfile 0.5.5
    there (which has the Python bindings intentionally turned off) and then
    rebuild everything (libkdumpfile, drgn, and pykdumpfile) for unstable.

    I plan to maintain this myself, I can add the Python team if they are interested; while I don't use the bindings directly I maintain
    libkdumpfile itself as a dependency of drgn.
