Package: src:gnumed-client
Version: 1.8.5+dfsg-1
Severity: serious

gnumed-client depends on python3-pip. Why?

The only use is in external-tools/check-prerequisites.py trying to download the
pysvg module last updated in 2012, and not ported to Python3 ...

Just drop that dependency, port the library, and package it. Please don't
encourage downloading third party code for a package in main.
