There's no plan yet.

The default plan would be to remove
python3-future when nothing needs it anymore.

That's what is happening right now with all
these old GTK2 & SDL1 frameworks

I've removed trivial usage of python3-future
from 3 games yesterday, I will continue.
I guess all packages are not that easy to patch
and there will be some blocker
with a dead upstream.


A quite smarter plan would be to patch python3-future
so it's start emitting a Debian-specific DeprecationWarning
that will come up:

 - in CI of other packages using it  (?)
  (after "duplicity" is updated not to annoy too many people at once)

 - in QGIS users scripts
  (Ubuntu 24.04 would be a nice "test bed")

Greetings



DONE:

ardentryst_1.71-10_source.changes ACCEPTED into unstable
-from past.builtins import cmp
+def cmp(x, y): return (x > y) - (x < y)

bouncy_0.6.20071104-9_source.changes ACCEPTED into unstable
-from past.builtins import long
+long = int

unknown-horizons_2019.1-7_source.changes ACCEPTED into unstable
d/control: - python3-fututre, was already clean
