[bug#55188] [PATCH] gnu: Add python-vitables.

Hello Peter,

You should add a comment stating why the tests are disabled. Because
there are no tests or because they are failing, and if so why?

The description could be more neutral: you could remove the "yet
powerful" and "much more" parts. The last sentence could also be
reworded: "As a viewer, ViTables is able to display very large datasets."
feels more factual.

Could you send an updated patch :) ?

Thanks,

Mathieu
