Lintian tag: old-python-version-field
Type: pedantic
Description (from lintian-explain-tags
)
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.
Please refer to Python Interpreter (Section 3.4) in the Debian Python
Policy 0.12.0.0 documentation for details.
