Hi Kartik,

The recoll package in Debian has a build-dependency on python3-all-dev and
python-all-dev.  However, its debian/rules has no support for building for
more than one version of {python,python3} at a time.

It is preferable to build-depend on python3-dev and python-dev instead,
since the package will only ever build for the current python version.  This
is less overhead at times when there are multiple supported python versions,
and also removes confusion when a no-change rebuild has no effect on the
package's contents.

The attached trivial patch to debian/control should address this.

Note that the python3.5 transition will be starting in Debian soon as well.

Thanks,
