Re: Bug#936448: dtfabric: Python2 removal in sid/bullseye
Hi Hilko,
I'm going to remove python2 support in dtfabric, and this action will
affects below packages which you maintained.
Reverse Depends:
Depends: python-plaso (>= 20181128)
Depends: python-dfvfs (>= 20170524)
Depends: python-dfwinreg (>= 20170524)
I plan to finish this task before the end of this week, please feel free to
contact me if you have any concerns.
