Hi Anton,

The python-admesh package currently build-depends on python3-all and
python3-dev (as well as python-all + python-dev).  This is inconsistent, and
results in a build failure when there is more than one supported version of
python - because the package will try to build for multiple versions, but be
unable to find the C header files for the extensions.

The correct thing to do is to build-depend on either python3-all-dev +
python3-all, or python-dev + python.

Attached is a trivial patch to fix this issue.  Note that the python3.5
transition is coming soon to Debian, at which point the severity of this bug
report would be raised to serious.

Thanks,
