There is already a corresponding python3 package, source package name
tnetstring3, binary package name python3-tnetstring.

When python2 is removed from debian, this package can be removed, as
well. However, I'd prefer to keep the package in sid as long as python2
is still there. Therefore, I'm not sure if this option is appropriate:

I'd prefer an option like this:

- Keep the package as long as python2 is in sid, and remove them at the
  same time.
