Package: renpy
Version: 7.3.5+dfsg-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
Please consider moving the Debian Ren'Py package from sid to experimental.
It is currently in an unusable state, because the Python 3 porting process is
still ongoing.
It doesn't make any sense to have it in testing right now, and unstable is
probably not ideal either.
FWIW, the package currently doesn't install properly:

According to [1], there are preliminary Ren'Py 8 releases with Python 3
support. It would be great to have packages built from the upstream nightlies
[2], so people can start testing them in Debian.
Thank you!
