[Debian-pan-maintainers] Bug#1059944: dioptas: please remove usage of deprecated & RB buggy python3-future

[Alexandre Detiste]

Source: dioptas
Version: 0.5.2-4
Severity: normal

python3-future was a compatibility layer that enabled to have both
python2 & 3 compatibility with the same codebase.

It is not compatible with Python3.12 and is being removed from the archive.

Your package use it only on a single line that could
likely be replaced by "basestring = str" ...


Or this one line is gone in 0.5.9 maybe.


Please also remove python3-future from debian/control in all cases.
