#942941 in src:dbus-python was bumped to serious because:
> python-dbus-tests is a module and has 0 external rdeps or not in testing

Please could you give python-dbus-tests or *-tests an exception to the
RC severity bumps, or only bump the severity if *every* Python 2 binary
package in a source package is eligible for removal, or something?
python-dbus still has a significant number of rdeps, and I don't want to
support python-dbus without keeping its automated tests available.

For now I've downgraded it back to normal.

Thanks,
