Probably a silly question, but are other libraries like unittest2 also being packaged for python3? Another library is mock. That was included in the stdlib in 3.3. Is that being packaged for python3 on Debian as well? I know it's nice to have the libraries available on both, but mock for example stopped working on python3.4 since it's solely maintained in the stdlib now. It doesn't make sense to package that for both. (Keep in mind, I'm just an observer and I haven't checked if those examples are already packaged for Py3) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
