I just had the idea whe can do something inbetween:  Add some
README.Debian that Python3 interface is "probably broken since the test
we added fails."  Users who might *really* use this interface might
possibly provide a solution we have no capacity to seek for.  I simply
move the Python part of the autopkgtest to this README.Debian.

Well, waiting for some version 0.10 sounds not very realistic,  The
package is on SourceForge which somehow smells very agy.  Given that
0.9-rc3 is from 2013-08-09 we can safely assume that the world will not
see any version 0.10, IMHO.

Kind regards
Andreas.

Hi Andreas,
it will be best to remove it, I suggest. I do not have any personal contact to 
upstream, somehwat unfortunate since this looks very nice and educational, but 
... unless someone enjoys such a transition, I suggest to just wait for a 
version 0.10.
Best,
Steffen

Hi again,

if there is no response of kind "Yes, please try to keep the Python
interface of ghmm" it will be removed soon.

Kind regards
