automake-1.15 is even easier than automake-1.16 since the test suite is 
disabled.  You could just delete the python* build-depends or update them to 
the python3 variants (see the attached patch).  Not tested since the test 
suite is currently disabled (and I'm assuming it's going to stay that way).

As I mentioned in the automake-1.16 bug, these are the last two packages that 
use python-virutalenv, so I'd really like to see them updated to unblock other 
work.

Thanks.
