Python2 becomes end-of-live upstream, and Debian aims to remove
Python2 from the distribution, as discussed in
https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2019/07/msg00080.html

We will keep some Python2 package as discussed in
https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2020/07/msg00039.html
but removing the unversioned python packages python-minimal, python,
python-dev, python-dbg, python-doc.

Your package either build-depends, depends on one of those packages.
Please either convert these packages to Python3, or if that is not
possible, replaces the dependencies on the unversioned Python
packages with one of the python2 dependencies (python2, python2-dev,
python2-dbg, python2-doc).

Please check for dependencies, build dependencies AND autopkg tests.

If there are questions, please refer to the wiki page for the removal:
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/2Removal, or ask for help on IRC
#debian-python, or the debian-python@lists.debian.org mailing list.
