yep i came across all of them starting from python-lzma -- do you know
what's the status of the "RedHat infrastructure" in debian? many (if
not all) of those tools are relatively old, not maintained (or just in
life support mode) and most of all, python2 with no port to python3
available

Allright then, i'll just wait a week for allowing people to comment
and then i'll file for koji removal.
