Bug#1057644: multiple python versions in a single .deb package
Control: tags -1 +wontfix
I tried this and it turns to be a little bit complicated to support. The
code change can be found in the git history, which was reverted by me.
The problem is that the file libtorch_python.so.* is specific to one
python version, and cannot be shared between py3.11 and py3.12. One of
them will break if we do setup.py for both versions.

Upstream is not interested to fix this since libtorch_python.so is
already big enough (25MB).
I don't want to spend my time for simultaneously supporting multiple
python versions anymore. And I don't see any problem by only supporting
the default python version. A couple of lines of code change can limit
reverse dependencies to a single python version.
Patch is appreciated if anybody can make it work. Make sure that both
py3.11 and py3.12 `import torch` works correctly.
