Bug#746741: release.debian.org: dh-python2 transition
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Dear release team,
Debian python teams would find useful to evaluate on continuous basis
removal of python-support from the archive and thus migrating to
dh-python2. We are uncertain of the scope, and the pace at which this
transition can be completed. But it would be extremely useful to have a
transition tracker setup (permanent-type ?!).
The following tracker was used in Ubuntu to remove python-support/python-central
from main suite:
Affected: .build-depends ~ /(^| )(python|python-dev|python-all|python-all-dev|python-support|python-central|dh-python)\s*([,(]|$)/ | .build-depends-indep ~ /(^| )(python|python-dev|python-all|python-all-dev|python-support|python-central|dh-python)\s*([,(]|$)/
Good: true
Bad: .depends ~ /python-central/ | .depends ~ /python-support/
Can such a tracker be setup please?
More details about the steps required to transition are documented at:
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/TransitionToDHPython2
If possible include that URL in the tracker description.
Regards,
Dimitri.
