Dear Maintainer,

Starting from 0.19.0, the pandas.io.data and pandas.io.wb modules have been
removed from pandas[1] and moved to a separate package (pandas-datareader). But
there does not seem to be any pandas-datareader package in Stretch. This could
potentially cause breakage for users relying on those modules. Could someone
please look into this and package pandas-datareader if necessary?

    "The pandas.io.data module is moved to a separate package "
ImportError: The pandas.io.data module is moved to a separate package (pandas-datareader). After installing the pandas-datareader package (https://github.com/pydata/pandas-datareader), you can change the import ``from pandas.io import data, wb`` to ``from pandas_datareader import data, wb``.

FWIW, I am running Stretch with the following repos.

You are correct; moving this to the standard place for new package requests.

In the meantime, it can be installed from PyPI with:
apt-get install python3-pip
pip3 install pandas_datareader
