Public bug reported:

** Background

This is raised because of a support request 
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1317116/kup-backup-failure
(note: it was closed as off-topic; so you'll need a certain rep on askubu in 
order to view it)

** Issue - recommends rule for no-longer-available-package

https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/kup-backup shows

"Recommends: bup : Package not available"

(removed as it relied on python2.7)

Sorry I'm unsure if there are any consequences, but maybe the recommends
rule needs to be deleted (could also be it was left there because it
makes it easier to re-introduce `bup` if it's ported to python3), OR

** Possibly filed against wrong package; `bup`?

The FIX required maybe be `bup` needs to be packaged; and this report
should thus be changed to be against `bup` itself; as
https://github.com/bup/bup says it requires python3.7 or later.  Maybe
the `bup` package needs to be updated (and filing should be on debian?)

** Affects: kup-backup (Ubuntu)
