Hm, Simon, are we not already covered by "clean-should-be-satisfied-by-build-depends"
here?

I'm also seeing a bunch of false-positives in the addon checker -
using the dh Python addon shouldn't mean that python can't be in
Build-Depends-Indep. Or dpatch! For example:

fail tests::legacy-scripts: output differs!

Thoughts?
