[Bug 2028054] [NEW] [MIR] python-rlpycairo

[Lukas Märdian]

Public bug reported:

python-rlpycairo is a new dependency of python-reportlab (currently
owned by Foundations).

The only consumer of python-reportlab is hplip (owned by Desktop),
apparently it needs it for scanning: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=651240

$ reverse-depends src:python-reportlab -c main -r mantic
Reverse-Depends
===============
* hplip                         (for python3-reportlab)

Packages without architectures listed are reverse-dependencies in:
amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, s390x

src:hplip -> src:python-reportlab -> src:python-rlpycairo ->
src:freetype-py & src:ttf-bitstream-vera

So from the above, it sounds like this new dependency is actually needed
(after the reportlab package dropped its renderpm extension). It should
be discussed between Foundations and Desktop who's owning those
dependencies and doing the MIRs for python-rlpycairo, freetype-py and
ttf-bitstream-vera
