Hi Stuart,

to be honest, I still don't like the idea of centering the casacore 
compilation around the multi-Python3-versioning. Specifically I am 
unsure whether I can understand and support that for the future; this 
looks a bit hackish. I'd rather stick with the default "cmake" build 
system as this is what corresponds to upstreams make system.

Since the dependencies here are rather clear (and python3-casacore is a 
leaf package), I would just restrict the python3-casacore package to be 
linked to the default Python interpreter, requiring both casacore and 
python-casacore to be rebuild if the default Python changes. For the 
releases this doesn't matter at all, because we only have one 
interpreter then.

Cheers

Ole
