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. Scott K [1] https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/python3.6-supported.html
