Hi Jeroen,

python3-pyfakefs is currently in the key_packages set
and is itself pulling in pandas & django.

https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/key_packages.yaml.cgi

Please reconsider the runtime dependencies;
pyfakefs does not 'need' any of pandas/django/...
it only supplements them; I think it semantically maps
better to the seldomly used Enhandes: tag.

Maybe you will want both: Suggets: + Enhances: these all.

Greetings

Alexandre
