Anyone interested in python-pgpy?

Hello,

python-pgpy is undermaintained and has long been so.  This has meant
that its reverse dependency mailscripts (which I maintain) is added to
the autoremovals list each time python-pgpy breaks.

The script in mailscripts that depends on python-pgpy,
email-print-mime-structure, is a nice, well-documented piece of
software, and it would be a great shame to lose it.

However, I can't really let the whole of mailscripts miss trixie as a
result of keeping it.  So, I'll have to drop email-print-mime-structure
from the mailscripts package if this situation persists.

Would anyone be interested in taking over maintainance of python-pgpy?

Thanks.

I have made a MR[1] including a few quick fixes for the RC bugs, in hope
that they are acceptable for another NMU to unblock this package and its
dependencies.  PTAL.  Thanks!

Thank you very much for taking a look at this one.

I'm a bit queasy about just disabling the failing tests.  Do we have
reason to believe that pgpy is not actually broken with Python 3.13?
In other words, what makes you think that it's just the tests that are
broken, not the program?

Thanks.

I don't have an answer yet.  I have tested 0.6.0-1.3 in a bookworm
sbuild chroot which has Python 3.11 and the tests passed.  The build log
in Bug#1086378 shows it was using Python 3.12, so I would assume
something changed in Python 3.12 was the cause.  I would do some further
checks to be sure.  Though I do hope people familiar with the matters
can beat me to it.
