Dear Maitnainer,

The Flit build engine has been spun out in the python3-flit package.

So please Suggests "python3-flit" instead of "flit"

By the same reasoning (which was ???) you might also
want to Suggests:
 - python3-poetry-core
 - python3-hatchling
 - python3-uv-build

You migt aslo fine it's better to drop the flit suggestion altogether,
that's fine for me too.

Greetings

Alexandre
