If I'm not mistaking, that's not what's going on. httplib is a standard
Python 2.7 library, but in Python 3, it was renamed as "http". So here,
we're in a case of not-good-enough Python 3 support.

However, you've opened a bug against the wrong package. It's
python3-googlecloudapis which you really wanted.
