Package: dh-make
Version: 2.202304
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,
Hi,
I am relatively new to debian packaging, and I am mainly using dh_make with
python libraries.
I noticed that the dh call produced by default when initializating a new
python project with dh_make is
========================================
dh $@ --buildsystem=pybuild
========================================
Is there a specific reason why the default line is not
========================================
dh $@ --with python3 --buildsystem=pybuild
========================================
instead? Is --with python3 implicitly enabled? If not, is not adding it by
default done on purpose?
There is a comment stating
========================================
# If you need to rebuild the Sphinx documentation:
# Add sphinxdoc to the dh --with line.
========================================
but there is no suggestion to add python3 to the --with arguments.
As a beginner, the source of my confusion is that dh_make seems to
automatically handle all requirements written in the "quick guide for
maintainers" at
https://manpages.debian.org/testing/dh-python/dh_python3.1.en.html
(notably, the first and the last bullet), except for adding the --with argument.
Simple script to reproduce is reported below.
Thanks,
Francesco
----------------------------------------
# Create a mock python library
$ mkdir my_python_library
$ touch my_python_library/__init__.py
$ tar -czvf archive.tar.gz my_python_library
# Run dh_make
$ dh_make -p my-python-library_0.0.1 -f archive.tar.gz
# select p when asked "Type of package"
$ cat debian/rules
========================================
#!/usr/bin/make -f
# See debhelper(7) (uncomment to enable).
# Output every command that modifies files on the build system.
#export DH_VERBOSE = 1
export PYBUILD_NAME=my-python-library
%:
dh $@ --buildsystem=pybuild
# If you need to rebuild the Sphinx documentation:
# Add sphinxdoc to the dh --with line.
#
# And uncomment the following lines.
#execute_after_dh_auto_build-indep: export http_proxy=127.0.0.1:9
#execute_after_dh_auto_build-indep: export https_proxy=127.0.0.1:9

Indeed, as described in pybuild manpage, you can either add --with
python3 to the dh helper in d/rules, or add dh-sequence-python3 to
Build-Depends, and dh_make does the latter.
You also have a small paragraph on the rational for dh-sequence-*
dependencies in the dh manpage.
