After installing python-avc importing the module avc
into a python interpreter fails with the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/avc/__init__.py", line 29, in <module>
    import avccore
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/avc/avccore.py", line 66, in <module>
    raise error,'No supported toolkit found: import it before AVC import.'
avc.avccore.error: 'No supported toolkit found: import it before AVC import.'

The vast majority of import failures is attributed to missing dependencies.
Often times that manifests as an ImportError or ModuleNotFoundError.
Typically, dependencies should be inserted by dh-python via ${python:Depends}
or ${python3:Depends}. Thus a missing dependency can be caused by incomplete
install_requires in setup.py. Sometimes a missing dependency of a dependency
is the cause, in such cases this bug should be reassigned.

Since python-avc 0.8.3-1.1 supports different widget toolkits and the user is normally interested to only one toolkit among these, I preferred to set them as "suggested" (the list follows) and not as dependencies. If there is a better way to define this, any help is appreciated (I am not an expert Debian packager).
