Package: python3-posix-ipc
Version: 0.9.8-3+b1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

When I try to install the python3-posix-ipc package in any of my
Debian/testing machines, I get the following error:

# apt install python3-posix-ipc
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
python3-posix-ipc : Depends: python3 (< 3.8) but 3.9.2-2 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

The problem occured for the first time almost one year ago (I don't
remember when exactly).
I hoped that it is just the matter of "testing" distribution.
However it is not resolved for quite a long time...

(I usually worked it around by working in a venvm where I installed
python3-posix-ipc
by pip:
python3 -m venv tmpenv
. tmpenv/bin/activate
pip3 install wheel posix-ipc
)
