Hi sk,

Ah, found it.  It's in the 'testing' and 'unstable' branches in Debian:

    http://packages.qa.debian.org/p/python-pychart.html
    http://packages.debian.org/unstable/python/python2.3-pychart

If you're running 'stable', you may want to ask the Debian folks how easy
it is to grab it from 'testing' and install it.

If you install pychart from source, doing 'python setup.py install' should
be sufficient, as long as you have ghostscript installed on your system.


Best of wishes to you!
