Package: python-autopep8 Version: 0.9.1-2 Followup-For: Bug #817860 Dear Maintainer,
python-autopep8 should really depend on python-pep8 as Clint suggests. I think this is how the story is like: 1. python-autopep8 depends on pep8; 2. pep8 used to be a python2 module, so it was bringing in python-pep8 and so the python-autopep8 package was fine; 3. however pep8 is now a python3 module, so it brings in python3-pep8, but NOT python-pep8; 4. therefore python-autopep8 should really depend explicitly on python-pep8 and drop the dependendcy on pep8. If you don't mind, I am going to increase the severity of this bug report, because the package is unusable like it is right now.
