Hi Maintainer

This package build-depends on python3-all-dev, but does not build
extensions/libraries for all supported python3 versions.  This is seen
on the transition tracker for adding python3.14 support [1] and
creates false positives.

Please either replace the b-d python3-all-dev with python3-dev, or
build for all supported Python3 versions.  With the former solution
you get later exposure to a new python3 version, with the latter
solution you get early exposure.

Please refer to Debian Python Policy [2] for more information.

Regards
Graham
