zope.interface is currently rc buggy because of an unsatisfiable build-depenency on python-zope.event, the package is also orphaned.

The package is a key package, so the issue won't be dealt with by autoremovals, furthermore the python-zope.interface package has quite a stack of reverse dependencies, so dropping it doesn't seem like a good option at this point.

Testing reveals that the build-dependency in question is only needed by the test suite, so I believe the least-bad option is to drop the build-dependency and not run the testsuite.

It would be preferable to only disable the testsuite for python2, but I have no idea how to do that, so my current debdiff disables the testsuite completely, I also ran into an issue with the package's clean target not cleaning up properly.

If anyone can suggest how to modify the package so it runs the testsuite for python3 but not python2 that would be appreciated. I plan to go ahead with an upload next week.
