Still it seems that this package is not useful without python3-gi. Thus a dependency seems warranted. It also means that you cannot use pydoc and other tooling. I think adding the dependency is a reasonable compromise. Still lowering severity is a reasonable thing to do as basically everyone will pull python3-gi by other means. This issue has little chance of affecting users practically. Helmut
