Hi!
Generally, this upload looks good (and I've just sponsored it), but the long
desc is untrue:
+++ libcloud-2.8.0/debian/control
- * Supports Python 2.5, Python 2.6, Python 2.7, PyPy and Python 3
+ * Supports Python 2.7, PyPy and Python 3.4 or newer.
I'm pretty sure this package doesn't support Python 2 anymore. Python3.4
would also require mixing Debian releases three releases apart.
Thus, while _upstream_ may support ancient Python versions, Debian packaging
doesn't. I'd suggest just axing this line.
Meow!
