Source: xapian-bindings
Severity: important

Hello,
from what i can see, xapian-bindings builds its documentation twice, one for the
python2 bindings (and install that in bin:python-xapian) and one for the python3
bindings (and install that in bin:python3-xapian).

this is usually un-necessary, and the convention is to create a separate package
to contain the documentation, in this case python-xapian-doc. So please split
out such a package to contain the documentation for the python bindings in a
single place, and that the same time, please only use python3-sphinx to build
the documentation.

This will help us in reducing the reverse dependencies of bin:python-sphinx, so
that we can introduce a python3-only sphinx version in unstable.

Thanks,
Sandro
