Hi.

I'm looking at making packages depending on python3-numpy
cross-buildable. Often this means splitting python3-numpy into a
separate python3-numpy-dev that is Multi-Arch:same. But in this case it
looks like you can ALMOST get away with a single python3-numpy package;
with some tweaks it can be Multi-Arch:same. The last sticking point is
the python3:Depends subst var, so I'm asking here.

As with most packages, python3-numpy has

  Depends: ${python3:Depends}

which today expands to

  Depends: python3 (<< 3.13), python3 (>= 3.12~), python3:any

Can somebody comment about why the :any is on the un-versioned
dependency only? Adding the :any to the other two would fix my problem,
and I'd like to get that added if there isn't a strong reason not to.

Thanks!
