Package: python3-coverage
Version: 3.7+dfsg.1-4
Severity: normal

Howdy,

The ‘setup.py’ uses Distribute's “entry_points” feature to install
‘/usr/bin/python3-coverage’ with a custom interpreter in the shebang.

The interpreter installed is whatever is the *latest* Python 3 in Debian,
whereas the documentation says:

    The Debian “python-coverage” source package provides the command-line
    program by the following names:
    […]

    * For Debian's default Python 2 and Python 3, the programs
      `/usr/bin/python2-coverage` and `/usr/bin/python3-coverage`.

The ‘/usr/bin/python3-coverage’ program should have its shebang line
specify the default Debian Python 3 interpreter, or ‘/usr/bin/python3’.
