Yes, I made an error there indeed (that I think Andrey corrected
already).  But let my try again:

just drop the python-debianbts binary, without doing any kind of
strange migration, and keep the name python3-debianbts for the
python3 package, as the Debian Python Policy states.

As Andrey wrote, don't touch the source package name either.


Sorry if I spread confusion accidentally…
