Hi!

While rebuilding the python related packages for the Python 3.15 transition,
we found that pysvn fails to build from source:
https://debusine.debian.net/debian/r-python-python3.15/artifact/5165532/

From the log, the error seems to be:

I: dh_python3 fs:543: renaming _pysvn.so to _pysvn.cpython-314-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
I: dh_python3 fs:543: renaming _pysvn_3_14.so to _pysvn_3_14.cpython-314-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
I: dh_python3 fs:543: renaming _pysvn_3_15.so to _pysvn_3_15.cpython-315-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
I: dh_python3 fs:543: renaming _pysvn.so to _pysvn.cpython-315-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
W: dh_python3 fs:156: Paths differ: debian/python3-svn/usr/lib/python3.15/dist-packages/pysvn-1.9.25.egg-info/top_level.txt and debian/python3-svn/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pysvn-1.9.25.egg-info/top_level.txt
E: dh_python3 fs:172: Not everything in 'debian/python3-svn/usr/lib/python3.15/dist-packages/pysvn-1.9.25.egg-info' was able to be merged into 'debian/python3-svn/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pysvn-1.9.25.egg-info'.
I: dh_python3 fs:179: Remaining files: debian/python3-svn/usr/lib/python3.15/dist-packages/pysvn-1.9.25.egg-info/top_level.txt
make: *** [debian/rules:15: binary-arch] Error 1

This is caused by the new dh-python version that fails with an error when the
top_level.txt files don't match for different Python versions. In the case of
pysvn, this is because the top_level.txt files include the python version in the
name of the package, i.e. '_pysvn_3_14' rather than just 'pysvn'. This is
visible in the package that is available in unstable.

I also noticed that the package in unstable is installing the .so library twice:

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pysvn/_pysvn.cpython-314-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pysvn/_pysvn_3_14.cpython-314-x86_64-linux-gnu.so

I spent a couple of hours trying to figure out the right fix for this, but it
seems more complex than other packages with similar failures.

We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of
pysvn, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive.

A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is
attached.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 1152048@bugs.debian.org,
and the maintainer will reopen the bug report if appropriate.
