Package: python3-wreport
Version: 3.3-1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
Justification: Policy 3.5
Due to the use of python:Depends instead of python3:Depends proper binary
depends are not generated. Also the package has a few obsolete features
still present (XB-Python-Version and python:Provides). These are no longer
needed. python:Provides has never been supported for python3. Additionally,
it's better to directly build-dep on dh-python since the build uses it's
features.
Please see the attached patch.
It would be nice to see this fixed soon as it makes wreport show up as unknown
rather than good on the python3.5 transition tracker [1]
