Package: astlib Version: 0.8.0-2 Severity: important Tags: patch Currently astlib only builds support for the default python3 version. As a result, once the default version switches from python3 3.4 to 3.5, astlib will be unusable until it can be rebuilt. The best practice (as described in the Debian Python policy) is to build for all supported versions. Then whichever is default, the package still works.
Please see the attached patch (formatted as an NMU because that's what devscripts handed me, but I have no near term plans to NMU). Scott K
