I believe this port is now complete, in the git branch above.  It passes
all tests provided that a version of python3-apt with the most recent
patch in #656288 is available.

I would very much appreciate review of this branch.  In case it eases
review, I've attached the 31-patch series (!) to this mail.  I've tried
to arrange it roughly in ascending order of complexity.

Cheers,
