See below for my reasoning for adding python3-nudatus as a Recommends
for python-uflash, rather than a hard Depends.

nudatus is really an optional dependency of uflash, as minification is
not essential. The uflash code checks to see if nudatus is available
at runtime, and will disable minify if it is not available.

Please see the request to provide the gpiozero package on non-armhf

i) pytest-cov measures test coverage, and I am not sure if that's a
useful statistic for packing?
ii) pytest-random-order would be useful, especially for reproducibility.
*However*, since upstream Mu added the dependency back in 2018/03,
upstream pytest-random-order 1.0.0+ disabled its "random by default"
behaviour (2018/10). As such, the mu-editor tests are not currently
randomised. This is a testing regression and I will report it, so that
the forthcoming 1.0.2 release of Mu contains it.
pytest-random-order is not actually packaged yet for Debian, so I could ITP it.

I have added notes about gpiozero/pigpio to d/control. pynsist does
not seem necessary.
Are there any others I have missed?
Thanks,
