Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian....@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
X-Debbugs-Cc: d...@debian.org
Please unblock package python3-defaults and python3.9
Adding a new binary package, -full, to both source packages. Both are
currently in binNEW.
Sorry, should have probably filed this a couple of weeks ago. Once we
saw this coming.
[ Reason ]
The reason for this change is laid out in
https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2021/02/msg00035.html
TL;DR: Debian heard of some upstream Python grumpyness about our
standard library splits, recently. This is all very badly timed for the
freeze.
Including a python3-full and python3.x-full packages, that Depends on
the entire stdlib, is a compromise position to help them to support
Python users on Debian (and derivative) platforms.
These packages would be dependency-only packages, and only directly
installed by end-users, not used as a dependency of other packages.
We intend to try to backport this to stable releases too.
[ Impact ]
Impact, if this isn't granted, is continuation of status-quo.
We'd probably attempt to add it in a point release.
[ Tests ]
Not relevant.
[ Risks ]
While the source packages at question are core to the system, this is
just the addition of leaf packages.
[ Checklist ]
unblock python3-defaults/3.9.2~rc1-1
