You indeed should use it, this is normally done by passing "--buildsystem=pybuild" to dh(1). That page even says "What's important to note here is that both of the dh_python2 and dh_python3 helpers are being invoked, and also that the build system that dh will use is pybuild." when showing the correct dh(1) line. > And the DPT policy > https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/tools/python-modules/-/blob/master/policy.rst > tells me something about git-buildpackage and gbp. gbp is not Python-specific and, strictly speaking, is not a part of Debian packaging, but a tool to store Debian source paclages in git. -- WBR, wRAR
