Do they have to be? Is that specified somewhere?
As far as I can see, this just works:

So I think I would need you to ask you to show me where this is a bug, esp.
one of Severity: important. Right now I don't see it.

In a case like this, wouldn't it be better to first inquire about the
situation at hand, either on the debian-python list, or with the respective
maintainer. [ I can't help much here, I am much more familiar with R than
with Python ... ]
