Bug#633057: lintian: a central place to list Python versions



Source: lintian
Version: 2.5.2
Severity: wishlist

The are currently (at least?) 2 places where lintian lists Python versions: checks/rules ($PYTHON2X_DEPEND, $PYTHON3X_DEPEND) and checks/fields ($PYTHON_DEV). Theses lists can quickly get out of sync and out of date. It'd nice if lintian could have a central place (somewhere in /u/s/lintian/data/?) to list Python version.

Also, we should decide *which* versions we are actually interested in? All currently supported in unstable? All currently existing in unstable? Maybe all supported either in unstable or stable?
