Hi Nicolas,

This was a comment on the Debian bug report; I'm suggesting uploading
my changes to the Debian anki collab-maint repository.  It's too late
for anki to get into stretch, as we are now in quite deep freeze, and
it has been removed from testing.  But the version I have created,
especially when 2.1.0 has stabilised, should be able to be backported
to backports.  In the meantime, it can be uploaded to unstable (at
least once my new package, python3-send2trash, which is needed by anki
2.1.0, has been processed through the NEW queue; this can also easily
be backported to stretch-backports).

Best wishes,

   Julian
