(new) saods9-blt_6.2+dfsg-1_amd64.deb extra science
BLT subpackage for saods9
 DS9 is an application for astronomical imaging and data
 visualization.
 .
 This package contains an updated and patched version of BLT for the use
 in saods9.
(new) saods9-data_6.2+dfsg-1_all.deb extra science
Image display tool for astronomy (shared data)
 DS9 is an application for astronomical imaging and data
 visualization.
 .
 DS9 is the modern imtool used by astronomers.  It is most
 distinguished by its support for displaying images of high dynamic
 range (such as 16 bit greyscale FITS files).  Whereas many other
 tools will only read an approximation to such files, DS9 works in
 full precision, and uses various display parameters to map input data
 into 8 bit data which can be displayed on the screen.
 .
 This package contains the shared data.

Image display tool for astronomy
 DS9 is an application for astronomical imaging and data
 visualization.
 .
 DS9 is the modern imtool used by astronomers.  It is most
 distinguished by its support for displaying images of high dynamic
 range (such as 16 bit greyscale FITS files).  Whereas many other
 tools will only read an approximation to such files, DS9 works in
 full precision, and uses various display parameters to map input data
 into 8 bit data which can be displayed on the screen.
 .
 Available parameters for the mapping include: brightness, contrast,
 false color, and nonlinear input mapping (such as logarithm, square
 root, square, etc.)
 .
 Although it may be useful in other fields, DS9 includes a fair number
 of features specific to astronomy.  There is an astronomical "name
 resolver" which allows a lookup of an arbitrary named object to its
 coordinates.  Given the coordinates of a field, online archive
 servers may be queried, and an image retrieved.  DS9 thusly
 implements a preliminary "Virtual Observatory".
 .
 DS9 is entirely controllable from external programs ("XPA"), which
 simplifies complex tasks such as data acquisition, realtime display,
 and batch analysis.
 .
 If images include WCS (World Coordinate System) keywords, then they
 may be "blinked" to search for moving or changing objects.

Override entries for your package:

Announcing to debian-devel-changes at lists.debian.org
Closing bugs: 655648 


Your package contains new components which requires manual editing of
the override file.  It is ok otherwise, so please be patient.  New
packages are usually added to the override file about once a week.

You may have gotten the distribution wrong.  You'll get warnings above
if files already exist in other distributions.
