Package: debhelper
Version: 13.8
Severity: normal

Hi,

I have a package, gensio-bin, which contains one seldomly used debugging
utility. I would therefore like to not hard Depend on python and have
added ${python3:Depends} to the Recommends line. That however ends up in
a warning from dpkg-gencontrol:

dpkg-gencontrol: warning: Recommends field of package gensio-bin: substitution 
variable ${python3:Depends} used, but is not defined

and no dependency on python at all.

Is that the intended behavior?

If it's not debhelper proper expanding ${python3:Depends}, then please
reassign to the appropriate package. Thanks.

Greetings
Marc
