In the meantime, there was a new version of the original progressbar
released in June, apparently with better Python 3 support:

https://pypi.org/project/progressbar/#history

I didn't dig into the details, but progressbar2 seems indeed better
maintained and better documented than the original project, and it
would be worth considering its inclusion into Debian. Maybe the author
could be convinced to change the namespace to "progressbar2" or
something else?

Cheers,
  Matteo
