Bug#912962: obex-data-server: recommends transitional python-gobject, and indirectly, deprecated python-gobject-2

[Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org>]

Package: obex-data-server
Version: 0.4.6-1
Severity: important
User: pkg-gnome-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: oldlibs python-gobject
Tags: buster sid
Control: block 912946 by -1

This package recommends python-gobject, which is a transitional package
that depends on both:

* python-gobject-2, the old "static" Python binding for GLib and GObject;
* python-gi, the new GObject-Introspection binding

Presumably only one of those recommendations is actually useful.

python-gobject-2 is only available for Python 2, and is unmaintained
upstream. Python 2 will also reach end-of-life upstream during the
lifetime of Debian 10 'buster'. Please port dependent packages to use
PyGI (the python-gi or python3-gi packages in Debian), which is the
GObject-Introspection-based replacement for python-gobject-2.

More information about porting from the static bindings is available here:
https://pygobject.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guide/porting.html

python-gobject-2 and Python 2 will probably be removed from Debian during
the bullseye release cycle, and the python-gobject transitional package
will also need to be removed.

Thanks,
