Hi Matthias (2025.10.26_09:42:39_+0000)
For alternate (build-)dependencies like
'tomli>=2.0;python_version<"3.11"',
dh-python generates dependencies like
python3-tomli (>= 2.0) | python3 (< 3.11)
forcing the installation of python3-tomli, although that is not
needed. With that we keep all dependencies on "deprecated" packages
which are not needed anymore.
Please can we revert that order
Would reversing it always be the right thing to do? It seems unlikely.
assuming that you need a newer version than the one provided in the
standard library, the dependency is wrong anyway.
or even drop it, if the python3 version is just too old.
We do that. Currently 3.9 is our "too old" limit. Probably time to bump
that...
please do, 3.11 ?
