Hello,

I used to use the cgi module to implement simple python-based cgi
scripts for mere http forms. But it is getting deprecated
https://peps.python.org/pep-0594/#cgi
and concerning form support:

  FieldStorage/MiniFieldStorage has no direct replacement,
  but can typically be replaced by using multipart
  (https://pypi.org/project/multipart/) (for POST and PUT requests) or
  urllib.parse.parse_qsl (for GET and HEAD requests)

But that multipart project doesn't seem to be packaged in Debian?
(python-multipart seems to be something else, that doesn't seem to
actually provide form content?)

Do we actually have something in Debian python to replace cgi's
FieldStorage in a simple way?

Samuel
