If you make me owner of your private repo I can move it to DPT and
upload. You will keep access to this one repo in the interim period
until you get full access to DPT.

Hi Alexandre,
makes sense, thanks. I'll keep 1.2.2-3 as it is and look at the native
conversion (and any build system changes) separately afterwards.
The package is ready on https://salsa.debian.org/nicoz-/dh-virtualenv
(branch debian/master); Salsa CI passes and the test suite runs at
build
time. Once I have access to python-team/packages I'll move the
repository there.
Would you be willing to review and sponsor the upload?
Thanks,
nicoz
