Just a quick follow-up I've been meaning to send. On Jul 02, 2015, at 03:55 PM, Barry Warsaw wrote:

Which is what I'm going to do. I've interacted with upstream and there's just no reason for us to be shipping a Python 3 version of enum34, especially in Stretch given our current and future supported Python 3 versions. I'll be uploading a new version of enum34 that deletes python3-enum34 asap. py3porters, please keep this in mind and don't add it back. It'll ftbfs anyway and I'll close any related bug as won't fix. In general, I think we'll just have to take similar situations on a case-by-case basis. For packages which provide additional functionality not in stdlib Python 3, it may still make sense to provide a python3- version of the package. Cheers, -Barry
