Package: zeroc-ice
Version: 3.6.3-4
Severity: normal
Source: zeroc-ice

Debian “stretch” no longer contains a package with python2 bindings. In 
previous releases this was available as ‘python-zeroc-ice’.
The source package’s “rules” seem to have been completely re-written without 
the inclusion of python2. The source of zeroc 3.6 still supports python2/
I can’t see this being is a deliberate choice as there is no trace in the 
“changelog” or an announcement for dropping this in NEWS.
