Package: src:ifupdown2
Version: 1.2.5-1
Severity: important

Python2.7 will go out of upstream security support during the Bullseye
development cycle.  It is not safe to assume it will be included in the
next release, so if you want to be sure ifupdown2 can stay in Debian, please
port it to python3.

Personally, I want to remove some packages I maintain, particularly python-
ipaddr, which ifupdown2 depends on during the Bullseye cycle, regardless of
what happens to python2.7, so please update (python3 includes the ipaddress
module, which was developed from ipaddr, in the standard library).
