--- Begin Message ---Package: gdb Version: 7.7.1-2 Severity: serious Tags: sid jessie * Go back to python2; it's causing people trouble and doko never actually explained the need. Thanks to Ben Longbons for the report and Jakub Wilk for corroborating it. (Closes: #748711, Reopens: #727003) There a a few things here ... - You are breaking packages, without giving any information in advance. See #752579. - Using clear names and nick names in the same changelog entry looks to me that you are biased ... - You are lying about "never actually explained". And by this time, the Python policy was updated to mention the preferred use of Python 3. - Ben Longbons doesn't mention any packages where pretty printers are broken. I'm re-opening the issue so that this can be properly tracked and fixed. In the mean time I'll add a Breaks to the gdb version which is built again using python2.
