CCing the python list.

Hi Cyril (2025.12.25_03:40:57_+0000)
Is there some kind of migration guide to move away from setup.py, to
something that's well supported in Debian (in say trixie or later)?

Simple answer: Build-Depend on pybuild-plugin-pyproject. And then you may need to change some things.

But... we should make this the default. Thanks for the reminder. This has been on my TODO list for a while. But I forget to look at it early in a release cycle.

Here's a starting point:
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/tools/dh-python/-/merge_requests/77

I'm test-building 50 packages that build-depend on dh-python but not pybuild-plugin-pyproject here:
https://debusine.debian.net/debian/r-stefanor-dh-python/workflow/?page=1

It looks like I'm going to need to do a complete rebuild (5300 odd packages) and file a *lot* of bugs.

Stefano
