bleach and other projects using html5lib seems to have locked the version of html5lib to the one with 7 nines. Can we also go back to the older version which works? It is not sustainable to expect maintainers to reverse dependencies to fix breakage with out giving them advance notice. Since python-bleach has autopkgtests defined, it would have been easy to find out if an update of python-html5lib would break it or not using a tool like build-and-upload script from pkg-ruby-extras team [1] This is now blocking progress of pagure too (which we want to use for git.debian.org).
