Well, in the meantime, you uploaded a new version of python-setuptools, so the Breaks/Replaces that already exists in python-pip is now out of date. But if you agree to remove python-setuptools-whl in 20.0-3, I will update the B/R in python-pip to match it. >And yes, you asked me to remove the whl package, but without giving a reason >for it in your forward. Okay, but it was discussed fairly extensively in debian-python@ already, both in terms of the technology and the changes in Debian Python Policy, which are already committed to its vcs. But to re-iterate: Through the use of dirtbike, packages which require -whls will build them at their own build-time, but this is limited to pip and virtualenv. Because the dependencies of upstream pip change, this is the only viable option for sustainability. Thus the previous -whl packages sprinkled throughout the archive should now be removed. I've included the patch here. I'm not going to play whack-a-mole with this bug, but it will be fixed when python-setuptools-whl is removed.
