old-python-version-field
The specified Python-Version or Python3-Version field is used to specify the version(s) of Python the package supports. However, the associated Python version is satisfied by the current "stable" distribution of Debian and may be unnecessary.
Please remove or update the reference. This warning should be ignored
if you wish to support "sloppy" backports. If removing, please also check
for the use of py3versions -r
in debian/rules
, and
debian/tests/
. Without an operative Python3-Version
field py3versions
will fall back to all supported versions
which may not be appropriate.
For more information please consult:
- Python Interpreter (Section 3.4) in the Debian Python Policy 0.12.0.0 documentation
The tag is present in Lintian version 2.114.163
.
That is the most recent version we know about.
We use semantic versions.
The patch number is a commit step indicator relative to the
2.114.0
release tag in our Git
repository.
You can find the detection logic for this version at commit ea05801. For merge requests, please use the latest version in the Lintian check languages/python.
