Package: ranger Version: 1.9.3-2 Severity: normal Tags: patch X-Debbugs-Cc: arni...@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer, I was trying to install ranger in my Debian sid installation. The ranger package pulled in python3.8 for me -- which was very unexpected since I already had the default python3 (3.9.0-3) installed in my system. As a pure python module, ranger claims that any python version >=3.1 (or even >= 2.6 if that still matters) should be compatible with it on its homepage. I don't see any dependency for python3.8 here, so I suggest applying the following change to the package metadata: --- i/DEBIAN/control +++ w/DEBIAN/control @@ -6 +6 @@ -Depends: sensible-utils, python3.8:any, python3:any +Depends: sensible-utils, python3:any (>= 3.1~) -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages ranger depends on: ii python3 3.9.0-3 ii python3.8 3.8.6-1 ii sensible-utils 0.0.12+nmu1 Versions of packages ranger recommends: ii file 1:5.39-3 ii less 551-2 ii python3-chardet 3.0.4-7 pn w3m-img <none> Versions of packages ranger suggests: pn atool <none> pn caca-utils <none> pn mediainfo | exiftool <none> pn poppler-utils | mupdf-tools <none> ii python3-pygments 2.7.1+dfsg-1 ii sudo 1.9.3p1-1 pn unoconv <none> ii w3m 0.5.3-38+b1 -- no debconf information
