[Python-modules-team] Bug#1001482: restrictedpython: (autopkgtest) needs update for python3.10: deprecation warning on stderr

Dear maintainer(s),

We are in the transition of adding python3.10 to the supported Python 
versions [0]. With a recent upload of python3-defaults the autopkgtest 
of restrictedpython fails in testing when that autopkgtest is run with 
the binary packages of python3-defaults from unstable. It passes when 
run with only packages from testing. In tabular form:

                        pass            fail
python3-defaults       from testing    3.9.8-1
restrictedpython       from testing    4.0~b3-2
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report. As mentioned 
in bug #909487 this test doesn't seem to be doing anything, and it can 
nevertheless fail. It's because there's a deprecation warning on stderr 
and autopkgtest fails on that by default. Unless a real test is added, I 
suggest to remove the autopkgtest.

Currently this regression is blocking the migration of python3-defaults 
to testing [1]. https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.10.html lists 
what's new in Python3.10, it may help to identify what needs to be updated.
