Package: src:python-biomaj3
Version: 3.0.20-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch

This package build-depends on python3 dev packages even though it has no
arch:any Python3 content.  This is not needed and complicates transition
trackinig for us, the python maintainers, (which is why I'm filing this as
important) [1].  As you can see, the package shows up as affected by the
transition when, in fact, it isn't.

Please see the attached patch.  I have written the debian/changelog in the NMU
form, but have no immediate intent to NMU. I also fixed python(2) while I was
at it, but those don't really affect anything.  Patch is untested because the
package currently FTBFS.
