[Pkg-bazaar-maint] Bug#1140909: breezy: please mark as many python3-* build-dendencies as possible as <!nocheck> or <!nodoc>

[Alexandre Detiste]

Source: breezy
Version: 3.3.22-1
Severity: normal

Hi Jelmer,

I am currently working on reducing the key_package set.

  https://release.debian.org/key-packages.html
  https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/key_packages.yaml.cgi

These package have immunity agains autoremoval because of RC bugs.

I believe random games or Sphinx themes should not have this kind of immunity
and should instead trigger the righteous autoremoval
instead of staying unacted forever.

I already got two RC buggy packages out of the list: dask & sphinx-gallery.

Please do your part: by virtue of being at the begin
of the alphabet, "breezy" is tagged as pulling in 9
more key packages by itself, which themselves
are maybe even pulling in more packages.

So I ask you please to mark as many python3-*
build-dendencies as possible as <!nocheck> or <!nodoc>.

If these dependencies are also runtime dependencies
it helps me greatly to untagle this knot.
(I only check build-depends)

This Salsa CI snippet hereunder can help.


Greetings

Alexandre
