Package: ganeti-2.16
Version: 2.16.0-5
Severity: important

Python2.7 will go out of upstream security support during the Bullseye
development cycle.  It is not safe to assume it will be included in the
next release, so if you want to be sure ganetia can stay in Debian, please
port it to python3.

Personally, I want to remove some packages I maintain, particularly python-
ipaddr, which ganeti depends on during the Bullseye cycle, regardless of what
happens to python2.7, so please update (python3 includes the ipaddress module,
which was developed from ipaddr, in the standard library).  As an alternative,
since it looks like python3 support is not well advanced upstream, there is
also python-ipaddress (backport of the python3 standard library version).

It's probably not very complicated to port ganeti to use that instead of
python-ipdaddr.
