Public bug reported:

This is a copy-paste from the debian bug https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1018639; we added python3-nose back in again on
the Debian package, and is still in the Ubuntu package.

Added here for reference, and so that we can solve this in the next
Ubuntu release too


Source: sosreport
Version: 4.0-2
User: python-modules-t...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: nose-rm

Dear Maintainer,

Your package still uses nose [1], which is an obsolete testing framework for
Python, dead and unmaintained since 2015 [2][3].

If you received this bug report, it means that your package either has a
build-dependency on python3-nose or uses that package in debian/tests/control.
If that is not the case, please reply and CC me explicitly.

Please port your package to one of the alternatives: nose2 [4], pytest [5]
or unittest from Python standard library [6].

There is a script called nose2pytest [7] which can assist with migrating from
nose to pytest.

This mass bug filing was discussed on debian-devel in [8].
