On 2016-09-04, when I reported the bug, it was python-openssl 16.0.0-2. I'm having a deja vu... Now I can think of two ways to handle this: A. celery now builds in stretch, nothing to do, this was really a bug in python-openssl and it's already fixed. or B. Policy says "it must be possible to build the package when the build-dependencies are met". Updating the build-depends on python-openssl and make it versioned takes very little. I suggested B on another package but (in addition to being called a lot of things) I was told this: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=836508#24 which, as I explained later in the same bug, does not sound very convincing. So, if you choose A please be consistent at least and reassign the bug to python-openssl and use "affects" on "src:celery". Thanks.
