thanks for all those fixes, much better now. Don't worry if there's
a lot of feedback, you didn't pick the easiest package to start out
with packaging from scratch.

Some issues remaining:

* repo: upstream/0.65.2 tag still points to the old source import,
  should be moved to the newest one; see
  https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/datasette/-/commits/upstream

* vendored copy of pint gets installed into the binary pkg; you might
  want to add an entry to d/clean (datasette/vendored/*) to ensure it
  cannot be used or installed by accident.

* control: there's still a load of unnecessary hardcoded python deps
  on binary pkg; you probably only need to keep markupsafe (or patch
  setup.py so it's picked up by dh_python/pybuild); everything else
  looks like it would be provided via ${python3:Depends}.

* control: build-deps on python3-platformdirs, -typing-extensions,
  and -flex* were needed only for the vendored pint; with that out of
  the picture, these deps are unused and should be removed.

* patches: remove-vendored-pint patch header contains boilerplate
  dep3 template.

* rules: '--with python3' is redundant when build-depending on
  dh-sequence-python3.

* rules: override_dh_auto_build -> execute_after_dh_auto_build?

* copyright: the vendored copy of pint is still missing here. It must
  be included even if it's not used or installed, simply because it's
  shippped in the orig tarball.

* some lintian hits need attention, particularly: (from
  https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/datasette/-/jobs/8674686)
  I: datasette: unused-override application-in-library-section python [usr/bin/datasette] [usr/share/lintian/overrides/datasette:4]  
    --> section already changed to 'database'
  I: datasette: package-contains-documentation-outside-usr-share-doc [usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/docs/*]  
    --> these typically go in /usr/share/doc/<pkgname>
  W: datasette: package-contains-vcs-control-file [usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/docs/.gitignore]  
  W: datasette: privacy-breach-generic [<script defer data-domain="docs.datasette.io" src="https://plausible.io/js/plausible.js">] (https://plausible.io/js/plausible.js) [...]
    --> this appears to be an analytics script, simply patching it out should be fine

* these lintian hits on the other hand deserve an override, given
  that the non-minified versions are in d/missing-sources:
  P: datasette source: source-contains-prebuilt-javascript-object [datasette/static/cm-resize-1.0.1.min.js]
  P: datasette source: source-contains-prebuilt-javascript-object [datasette/static/codemirror-5.57.0-sql.min.js]
  P: datasette source: source-contains-prebuilt-javascript-object [datasette/static/codemirror-5.57.0.min.js]
  P: datasette source: source-contains-prebuilt-javascript-object [datasette/static/sql-formatter-2.3.3.min.js]
  P: datasette source: source-contains-prebuilt-javascript-object [datasette/static/table.js]

* why d/source/options extend-diff-ignore = "^setup\.cfg$" - does
  this get modifed somehow? Same question for
  d/source/include-binaries tests/spatialite.db?


As always, once the above comments have been addressed, simply re-add
the package to the IRC channel topic and/or ping me by e-mail.
