Hi,
Are you using
dh binary --no-act
with debian/rules containing:
dh $@ --with=python3,sphinxdoc
?
In that case, you are comparing apples with oranges. You would have to use
dh binary --no-act --with=python3,sphinxdoc
To see the sequence with the add-ons applied (or use the "new-style"
Build-Depends on dh-sequence-python3, dh-sequence-sphinxdoc).
