I’d like to update and/or add a py-faiss port for 
https://github.com/facebookresearch/faiss/

Before taking the time to follow any specific approach, I’d appreciate some 
advice. Here’s the current situation:

• There’s a libfaiss port, but it’s 2 years out of date and doesn’t include the 
now-standard Python and PyTorch bindings (see 
https://github.com/facebookresearch/faiss/blob/master/INSTALL.md).
• The current port libfaiss doesn’t work to build the latest faiss v1.5.3.

It appears to me that the best/obvious thing would be to add a python/py-faiss 
port that would supersede math/libfaiss. The port math/libfaiss would be 
removed.

Before I go ahead and prepare a PR that does this, does anyone have any 
comments on this approach? Also, if it were to be implemented, what’s the best 
way to deprecate/remove math/libfaiss?
