Er, Google is very unhelpful showing what dh_python2 actually does. I
can't even find the source code...

What does dh_python2 do?

Why do we want to use it over python-central?

I've seen a hint on google that dh_python2 parses requires.txt, in that
case would we be able to replace our use of van.pydep with it?
