There is something wrong with the script which generates this wnpp list ...
I think it is enough if this package is listed once. Perhaps this is
triggered by the SPAM mail which reached the BTS over the address of the
bug?
By the way: The changelog says:
python-gendoc (0.73-5.1) unstable; urgency=low
* NMU. Use python2.1.

python-gendoc (0.73-5) unstable; urgency=low
* Orphaned package. Use python-happydoc instead.
* Fix .prerm script (closes: #95954).

So we have a substitute package in Debian which seems to have same or
better functionality. Moreover the URL in the copyright file has the
response:
File Not Found
The requested URL /crew/danilo/ was not found on this server.
So I suggest there should be a
Replaces: python-gendoc
Provides: python-gendoc
Conflicts: python-gendoc
in the python-happydoc package and drop python-gendoc because it seems
even upstream dead. (A quick Google search had only links to the Debian
Packages on the first pages.)
Kind regards
Andreas.
