[Pkg-fonts-devel] Bug#948016: fontforge: b-d on python3-all-dev, but not built for all supported Python3 versions

[Graham Inggs]

Source: fontforge
Version: 1:20190801~dfsg-2
Severity: normal
Tags: sid bullseye
User: debian-python at lists.debian.org
Usertags: python3.8 python3-all-dev

The 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 python3.8 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 yet get later exposure to a new python3 version, with
the latter solution you get early exposure.

Regards
Graham
