[Pkg-matrix-maintainers] Bug#1003565: Please modify your dependencies from python3-mistune to python3-mistune0

[Pierre-Elliott Bécue]

Hi,

Following up some exchanges, we agreed within the Python Team to
reupload mistune 0.8.4 under the mistune0 source package. As it passed
NEW, I'm currently doing a sourceful upload and replacing any occurence
of mistune in this package by mistune0.

Therefore, in 15 days, I'll make all these bugs RC, in order to be able
to update src:mistune to mistune v2 no later than the end of March.

To rely on python3-mistune0, add it as a dependency of your package, and
make a Debian patch to replace any occurrence of a mistune import or
usage to mistune0.

This is not ideal, but I guess upstreams will make themselves compatible
with mistune v2 in some future and you'll be able to drop such patches.

In the meantime, this avoids conflicts between mistune 0.8.4 and 2.0.0
as both can be installed, and this also allows for things depending on
mistune v2 to enter testing.

With best regards,
-- 
PEB
