[Pkg-scicomp-devel] Bug#568819: ptscotch: description does not describe the package

Package: ptscotch
Version: 5.1.7.dfsg-1
Severity: normal

The description for ptscotch says nothing other than "PT-SCOTCH is the
MPI version of scotch."

This tells the user nothing about the package.  What is scotch? What
does it do? What is it for?
