Bug#896079: lintian: misleading description for dependency-on-python-version-marked-for-end-of-life
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.83
Severity: normal
"The package specifies a dependency on Python 2.x which is due for deprecation and will not be maintained past 2020."
This is misleading, since Debian will (security) support Python 2.7
until at least mid-2022 (EOL for buster).
Please change this to:
"The package specifies a dependency on Python 2.x which will likely be dropped after buster."
