Package: dh-python
Version: 2.20151103
Severity: wishlist
User: de...@kali.org
Usertags: origin-kali

When I call "dh --with python3" it's because I know that the package is
built with Python3 and I know that dh_python3 should do some work...

So I would like /usr/share/perl5/Debian/Debhelper/Sequence/python3.pm
to call dh_python3 with a new flag like
"--fail-if-no-python3-package-found" so that the helper scripts fails
loudly instead of doing nothing silently when it's not able to identify
the Python3 package(s) on which it is supposed to act...

The error message should explain clearly that it acts only on packages
whose name start with python3- and on packages which have
"${python3:Depends}" in their Depends line.

TIA.
