Ok, Rant is over.
I have just been in touch with the pysam developers and they assured me that pysam only depends on Cython and not on pyrex. Pyrex is still stated as a dependency of python-pysam. I am thinking of making changes to the python-pysam package for it to create a new binary python3-pysam. I will test if removing the python-pyrex dependency breaks the package.
