OK, maybe. But that also means that when python3.8 is default and
fontforge isn't yet rebuilt for python3.8-as-default but some package
from my list is rebuilt the same problem happens.

Then fontforge (which is not in the list below!) needs to be rebuilt before
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/python3.8-default.html
is worked on.

Didn't see it there so wanted to go sure.
