[1], do you think it would be possible to move these Python scripts to a separate package? Hi, you can find a MR that moves the Python scripts to a separate package at https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/nfs-utils/-/merge_requests/29 Regards, -- Gioele Barabucci

Bug#1013868: nfs-common: Split between Python scripts to separate package
Package: nfs-common Version: 1:2.6.1-2 Dear maintainers of nfs-common, could you please move the three Python scripts included in nfs-common to a separate -extras package? Currently nfs-common Depends on `python3` and, on lean/containerized client systems, it is the only package that requires it. For this reason, in 2019 Fedora moved the scripts `mountstats`, `nfsiostat` and `nfsconvert` to a separate package [1,2], required on servers (for `nfsconver`) but not on clients.
