[Python-apps-team] Bug#943936: supervisor: Build-depends on python3-all but should only need python3

[Steve Langasek]

Package: supervisor
Version: 4.1.0-1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
User: ubuntu-devel at lists.ubuntu.com
Usertags: origin-ubuntu focal ubuntu-patch

Dear maintainers,

The supervisor package currently build-depends on python3-all, which causes
its test suite to be run at build time against all supported versions of
python3.

This is unnecessary, since supervisor is an application package and will
only ever be used at runtime against the current version of python3.

The only reason I noticed this is because python3.8 has been added as a
supported, non-default version of python3 in Ubuntu, and supervisor 4.0.4
was not compatible with python3.8.

I'd suggest the attach patch, to avoid the build failing in the future on
build-time tests that are not relevant to the functioning of the binary
package.

Cheers,
