[Python-modules-team] Bug#1078167: referencing: Testing suite python-referencing-suite not included in package

[Myles Penner]

Package: referencing
Version: 0.35.1-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: myles.penner at canonical.com

Dear Maintainer,

Problem:
Ubuntu is looking to include python3-referencing in ubuntu/main but the package in the Debian
archive, which is being created from git tags, does not contain the necessary 
python-referencing-suite. This library is required for autopkgtest and is not currently
packaged. The autopkgtest option in d/control is disabled as a result.

Potential fix:
The version of this package in PyPi does include referencing-suite in full. Could Debian use 
the PyPi package in the archive rather than directly pulling from the git tags? This may be
simpler than packaging python-referencing-suite separately.
