I'm not doing anything specific to change the shebang line. That's being
done by the Debian Python packaging tools.

Also, your request contradicts the Python policy in the Debian packaging
manual:

    1.4.2 Interpreter Location

    The preferred specification for the Python interpreter is
    /usr/bin/python or /usr/bin/pythonX.Y. This ensures that a Debian
    installation of python is used and all dependencies on additional
    python modules are met.

    
<URL:http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/ch-python.html>

So, the ‘/usr/bin/python3.3’ interpreter filename complies with that,
whereas ‘/usr/bin/python3’ does not.

What is your reason for wanting ‘python-coverage’ in particular to violate
that policy?
