Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition

We would like to add python3.6 as a supported python3 version along with
python3.5.  This is not exactly like a normal transition.  Only transient
unbuildability of higher level packages is to be expected.

As usual, we are planning a three step transition from python3.5 to python3.6.

Adding python3.6 as supported is first.

Once that is complete, we'll file another request to make python3.6 the
default python3.  This step does not need to immediately follow the first.

After that, we'll drop python3.5 as a supported version (other than needing a
tracker, that step doesn't need any support from the release team and won't
entangle anything as buildability of packages is not implicated).

Ben file:

title = "python3-defaults";
is_affected = .depends ~ "python3-all-dev";
is_good = .depends ~ "python3 (<< 3.7)";
is_bad = .depends ~ "python3 (<< 3.6)";
