Source: sphinxbase
Version: 0.8+5prealpha+1-2
Severity: serious

Hi all,

sphinxbase is currently involved in the python3.7 "transition"¹. I
noticed that sphinxbase was rebuild, but that is was still listed in the
"bad" category. I took a look at the amd64 build log² and spotted the
following some oddities in python3-sphinxbase.

1) it has only has the 3.6 dependencies (hence listed as bad)
2) it only has 3.7 site-packages files
3) _sphinxbase.cpython-37m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so points to a non-exitent
file. The file is in the 3.7 site-packages directory.
4) python3 versions in the build are first 3.7 and then 3.6, they seem
to be using the same build directory.

I think this is caused by the fact that we loop over $pyver in the
d/rules file, but apparently that is broken for multiple python3 versions.

I think the package is probably not working currently hence I file this
bug. (I don't know how to fix it properly yet, maybe Samuel has ideas?).

Paul
