Yes. You should have used debian-python@ldo.

I can, but before doing so I'd like you to confirm you are in the
backports ACL and you know of the backports rules as written in the bpo

Case in point: s3ql in jessie-backpors is not up to date with the
stretch version, that's why I'm asking the above...

unrealted, but PAPT never ever used git-dpm (and now also both papt and
