Yeah, the project got pushed back on my side...
Been way too busy with other stuff lately.

Looks good to me, and I like that you're making use of gitlab-ci.
This will be really useful to test package builds in a "Debian project"
environment without requiring DD access.

There's two things I'd like to see addressed before this should go into the
release queue:
1. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=905803 and
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=909730 - I don't know how to
fix this and if just depending on python3-dev instead of python3-all-dev is
the right "solution". Ideally, the package should build for all "current"
python3 versions. We could also do nothing and wait the transition from 3.6 ->
3.7 out, but the problem will pop up again during the next transition.
2. I think Cura requires Python 3.5, so you shouldn't depend on Python 3.4.
Also, does the binary-depends "python3 (>= 3.4)" really make sense? The
dependency on python3 is added automatically anyway, and in light of 1., I
don't think we should add any explicit dependency here. Or does this fix 1. in
some way?
Regards,
Greg
