the conda-forge python system. See the wiki for more details,

The sources for the java classes that allows Python subclassing are no longer in a separate package
but integrated in a modified orekit source fork.

This fork is available at:
https://github.com/petrushy/Orekit

A compiled jar and some other artifacts are available at:
https://github.com/petrushy/orekit_python_artifacts

build scripts for the automated conda package builds are at:
