[Python-modules-team] Bug#933613: ldaptor: Epydoc will be removed

[Kenneth J. Pronovici]

Source: ldaptor
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 5.9.2

Hi,

This is one of 20+ packages in the archive that still depend on Epydoc.  I
have filed a bug with ftp.debian.org to have epydoc removed from unstable.
Besides its lack of support for Python 3, epydoc has been completely
unsupported upstream for close to a decade.  It really should have been removed
from the archive years ago.

I apologize for the late notice on this.  I filed bugs against all of the
dependencies I could find over 18 months ago, but the FTP Master list included
some additional packages.  

If I don't hear back from you, I will NMU a version of your package that removes
the build dependency.  I will accomplish this by simply not building the API
documentation.  If you don't want me to do this, please reply and let me know
how you want me to proceed.

Thanks,

KEN
