[Pkg-auth-maintainers] Bug#934861: python-yubico-tools not installable, broken dependency

Package: python-yubico-tools
Version: 1.3.2-2.1
Severity: important

The python-yubico-tools package in sid cannot be installed.  The recent 
NMU of the python-yubico added "X-Python-Version: >= 2.8" to the 
debian/control, which resulted in a bogus binary dependency on 
python:any (>= 2.8~).

The current Python packaging policy manual says that these fields are 
obsolete and can be removed now that only Python 2.7 is supported[1].
