Package: lintian Version: 2.5.84 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
There has been a lot of discussion on debian-devel about the future of python2.7 in Buster. The dependency-on-python-version-marked-for-end-of-life flag is confusing people into thinking they should drop python2.7 support from their packages because it isn't going to be in Buster. I understand (and agree with) the intent of this check, but in practice, it's harming the release. I don't think it is salvageable. Scott K
