Package: python3-pip Version: 8.0.2-5 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
The python3-pip package has an unnecessary explicit dependency on python3.4 in addition to python3 (>=3.4~). This leads to the installation of python3.4 packages on systems where python3 is >3.4, such as sid. This bug report's information does not report it as a dependency because I have been manually apt-get downloading the python3-pip package, removing the python3.4 dependency in DEBIAN/control, and then repackaging and installing the modified package. pip3 still functions as expected. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages python3-pip depends on: ii ca-certificates 20160104 ii python-pip-whl 8.0.2-5 pn python3:any <none> Versions of packages python3-pip recommends: pn build-essential <none> ii python3-dev 3.5.1-1 pn python3-wheel <none> python3-pip suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
