Package: src:dh-python
Version: 7.20261019
Severity: serious
Control: affects -1 src:appdata src:busco src:dissononce src:django-distill src:dogtail2 src:gitsome src:mkdocs-macros-plugin src:palettable src:pkb-client src:pocsuite3 src:python-jira src:python-multidict src:python-pantomime src:python-serializable src:python-sparkpost src:python-threadloop src:sbws src:sorted-nearest

Dear maintainer:

The packages in the affects line all fail to build in a similar way:

E: dh_python3 fs:312: python3-sorted-nearest includes a common build directory name 'tests' as a module. Likely due to a mis-configured build system installing things it shouldn't.

(That's how src:sorted-nearest fails, as an example).

If this is not a bug in dh-python, please clone and reassign to each of the affected packages, possibly
with a brief explanation of what maintainers are supposed to do.

Thanks.
