I'm busy with the (tentative-) removal of python3-unittest2.

unitest2 is an old version of what has become "unittest" in the
standard library

90% of dependencies are stale and only need a quick edit of debian/control
for the other I submit patches upstream


Will you also send patches to upstream OpenStack? If so, please note
that OpenStack uses Gerrit, and you need to follow the instructions
detailed here for a new account:
https://docs.openstack.org/contributors/en_GB/common/accounts.html


I will learn Gerrit because I'm curious...

...but 90% of these remaining dep on unittest2 are really only about
removing 1 line from debian/control ...
only committing this change + setting the bug as pending would
already help with triaging

I can send Salsa MR if that's easier for everyone too.


If you just send me the list of packages affected, with no change to be 
sent upstream, I can take care of it in a few minutes myself. Or have 
you already filled the bugs?


Cheers,

Great
