Or on second thought, will it be easier if I upload an offlineimap upload marking the binary package as dummy transitional package instead of going through RM and then NEW ? -- Regards Sudip

I have uploaded offlineimap3 to unstable but will not migrate untill we have 'python3-imaplib2' in testing, which is blocked by #937831, which is again blocked by this #937184. Can we go ahead with this removal please? I can then add a dummy transitional package so that users of offlineimap can upgrade to offlineimap3 with Bullseye. Since I have the ITA on offlineimap, do I file the RM bug or that needs to be done by Ilias ? -- Regards Sudip

Now that offlineimap3 is available in experimental, let's go ahead with removal of src:offlineimap? Cheers, Moritz

Control: usertag -1 + py2keep Control: forwarded -1 https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap/issues/616 Unfortunately, there are no plans to convert OfflineIMAP to Python3. The current maintainer has stated this multiple times[1][2], and no-one has stepped-up to do the necessary job. [1] https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap/issues/616#issuecomment-491003691 [2] https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap/issues/628#issuecomment-528991719 I am adding the `py2keep` tag since this package has still many users, but I would advice users to start looking for alternative solutions.
