[Freewx-maint] Bug#755757: transition: wxpython3.0

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org at packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition
Control: block -1 by 734799

This is a follow-on from the wxwidgets3.0 transition.  The wxwidgets2.8
source package actually contains the wxpython source, which has an
embedded copy of wxwidgets.  This has become unworkable as the wxpython
releases now lag the corresponding wxwidgets releases by many months,
so for 3.0 we're splitting the source packages.

The intention is to eliminate wxwidgets2.8 (and hence wxpython 2.8)
before releasing jessie - the last upstream release (2.8.12) was over 3
years ago, and there's very little upstream interest in bugs in it now.

I'm just finishing off packaging wxpython3.0 and hope to upload it in
the next few days (ITP is #734799).

I've attached the output of "dak rm -Rn -b python-wxgtk2.8" to indicate
the packages affected.

This should be a "smooth transition", as the packages for wxpython 2.8
and 3.0 are co-installable.

Cheers,
    Olly

is_good = .depends ~ "python-wxgtk3.0";
is_bad = .depends ~ "python-wxgtk2.8";
