We have the same situation in ‘python2-openssl’ where we have to explicitly add ‘python2-cryptography’ and remove ‘python-cryptography’. This is also why any python2 variant of a package with ‘python-numpy’ among its inputs has to be treated specially. It would, of course, be nice if package-with-python2 could handle this automatically. ~~ Ricardo
