Package: python3-matplotlib Version: 2.1.1-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
Running a python3 script that uses pkg_resources.load_entry_point cannot run because the dependency subprocess32 is not available. subprocess32 is a Python 2 backport of a Python 3 module so is a dependency that can never be satifisfied. I commented subprocess32 out of /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/matplotlib-2.1.1.egg-info/requires.txt and then discovered that backports.functools_lru_cache is also a Python 2 backport. It looks like the new Python 2 requirements file to resolve #887964 and #887965 was incorrectly installed in the Python 3 package.
