[Bug 1983414] Re: [BPO] dh-python 5.20220403 to focal

[Dan Streetman]

Comments:

1. This adds Suggests: flit, python3-build, python3-tomli,
python3-installer; however, those aren't available in focal.

2. Similiarly, the newly-added package pybuild-plugin-pyproject Depends:
on the python3-{build,installer,tomli} packages, which aren't available
in focal.

3. This adds Breaks: and Replaces: for python2 (<< 2.7.18-2), but in
focal python2 is 2.7.17-2ubuntu4. Either dh_python2 needs to be moved
from python-defaults in focal (or more likely focal-backports) to this
package, or this backport needs to leave out dh_python2 (and it should
be verified that the only reason for the Breaks: is because of moving
the dh_python2 script between packages).


There may be more issues, I didn't look in depth at all the code changes; I can do a closer review if the above issues are addressed first, or at least looked at to see if those issues are possible/reasonable to fix.

** Changed in: dh-python (Ubuntu Focal)
       Status: New => Incomplete

Title:
  [BPO] dh-python 5.20220403 to focal

Status in dh-python package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in dh-python source package in Focal:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * This is needed to refresh the yt-dlp package as it has support for 'environment markers'
   * This version could also be useful for other projects as it adds support for pyproject.

  [Scope]

  Backport from:
   * To me it makes sense to backport from jammy (LTS), though the version currently is the same as devel.

  Backport to:
   * focal

  
  [Other Info]

   * I have created a test backport in ppa:unit193/staging and have
  already utilized.

  [Testing]

  * focal:
  [x] Package builds without modification
  [x] dh-python installs cleanly and runs
  [?] pybuild-plugin-pyproject installs cleanly and runs
