Hi,

Sorry for the lack of heads up. Next time I'll just have you do it I think.

Zero changes in devscripts were needed, just backported python3-magic and 
python3-debian at build time since they weren't in wheezy. Backporting 
python3-magic (source package 'file') required a backported 
distro-info-data package or the build time tests fail. However the d-i-d 
package I uploaded has a bpo style version number that will prove 
problematic with the version sitting in stable proposed updates, so the 
whole lot is held up for that at the moment.
