I'm not sure 'python3-foo' just as an upgrade helper is ideal. Let me explain my use case: I have a CI job which runs 'setup -q -P python3,python3-lxml'. It's nice if that gets me something where "python3 -c 'import lxml'" works, and doesn't require changing every time the default python version is updated. > there is a bit of cleaning to do on the python3-* tree and package pull, > but first we need to patch cygport to stop creating additional > python3-* packages if not requested. > > I guess after the Perl 5.32 I could look on it > as spring project.
