Just an FYI that the changelog entry claims "Uploading to experimental" yet it appears to be actually targetting unstable.

Well, now we have an issue. Unfortunately, pbr kind of depends on itself because of unit tests (it depends on packages that need pbr to be installed). I know it isn't ideal to have this kind of build-dependency cycle, but it's still nicer to run unit tests than not, so I ignored this situation. If you have any suggestion ... So I uploaded a degraded version without unit tests and doc, and I'll do a 2nd upload when the new PBR package reaches Sid. Thomas Goirand (zigo)

Package: python3-pbr Version: 5.4.3-3 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Hi, Updating python3-pbr (or installing it) fails with: update-alternatives: error: alternative path /usr/bin/python3-pbr doesn't exist I suppose it's a left over of the alternative configuration when there was Python 2 version. Now the Python 3 package directly provides /usr/bin/pbr.
