Hi,

I assumed that the Python3 package would just have been missing in the
Debian packaging and thus touched python-lzma.  I learned that there are
several syntax errors when trying to build with Python3 so this seems to
be upstream orphaned code.  Since I can not really imagine that it
should be hard to deal natively with XZ compressed files when using
Python3:  Am I missing something and there is a competing module?

Since I polished python-lzma I uploaded the package anyway with new
Vcs fiels and other polishing stuff.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
