Re: Bug#934398: RM: beanstalkc -- ROM; no Python 3 subpackage and no reverse deps

The fact that dak doesn't care about autopkgtests makes `dak rm -Rnb` especially tricky and we shouldn't rely on just that to get an idea whether a package can be safely removed or not. It would be nice if dak had a notion of "Test-Depends" of course, but I don't think this information exists in the archive's metadata currently. While I understand the urge to get Python 2 out of bullseye as early as possible, I don't feel happy about how this particular case was handled, and I notice that it is not in agreement with what was posted on debian-python[1]. In all honesty and leaving [1] aside, I would very much have preferred if you had done one of the following instead: - Open an RC bug on the package to add Python-3 support in the first place, which would have given me more time to react and at least spare me writing this e-mail and filing for an ITP in the middle of August - X-Debbugs-Cc beansta...@packages.debian.org at bug report time, as finding out at the time of *removal* is arguably too late. Please keep these in mind before filing for future removals. Regards, Apollon [1] https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2019/07/msg00080.html
Joining Python Modules Team
Hi, I noticed that subliminal is not in Buster due to various RC bugs and would like to take care of it going forward, can you please add me to the Python Modules Team project on Salsa? I'll upgrade it to the latest version (along with babelfish, guessit and python-rebulk which also need more recent releases and are maintained by PMT), local build is working fine for me. I'll also drop Python 2 from the packages. Cheers, Moritz

Hi,
first of all I would like to say thanks to Andrey. He is hard working to
remove Python 2 from Debian. It's not easy job.

it was. Cite:

No need to wait for a bug report. If you have a leaf package, remove it now.
If you're not a DD, do it in the git repo and ping Piotr.
beanstalkc was team leaf package without reverse {build-,}depends.

yes, this make sense.
Thanks.
