Dear maintainers,

With the recent migration of mailmanclient to testing, the autopkgtest
of mailman3 fails in testing because python3-mailman-hyperkitty and
mailman3-web fail to install. It passes when run with only packages from
unstable. I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report.

If the right binary package(s) from mailmanclient would have had a
versioned Breaks on the broken versions of mailman3-web and
python3-mailman-hyperkitty this could have been prevented. Also this
regression wasn't caught by the migration software framework because
mailmanclient isn't in the Testsuite-Trigger list of mailman3 (which can
be fixed for the future if desired, via a test case with the
hint-testsuite-triggers restriction).  Unfortunately, due to failing
testsuites of mailman-hyperkitty (bug 909238) with the fixed mailman
stack will not migrate soon.

If the regression in the mailman-hyperkitty is deemed relatively
innocent, we can speed up the migration by ignoring the test failures.
If you want this to happen please CC me in responses or play this via
the release team.

Paul
