Actually not; the ‘python-coverage’ source works with only the Python 3 packages of Sphinx, so doesn't need ‘python-sphinx-rtd-theme’ for anything. > ditto for > * python3-sphinxcontrib.spelling > * python-sphinxcontrib.spelling I think perhaps you have discovered an unwanted interaction of having both those packages installed; if so, this is evidently not a bug in ‘python-coverage’ source or its build process.

The ‘python-coverage’ package doesn't have a bug preventing its build from source, using its declared build dependencies. Does that seem correct? You may want to experiment with the interactions between Python 2 and Python 3 packages for Sphinx, in order to make a reproducible set of steps to report a bug in those packages. -- \ “If I haven't seen as far as others, it is because giants were | `\ standing on my shoulders.” —Hal Abelson | _o__) | Ben Finney <bign...@debian.org>
