I did not keep the file substvars which was made, but I remember that at
some time a dependency on a non-existing package had been automatically
generated. If I see something similar in the future, I shall try to
trigger the same error with a minimal package and report a bug.
Now I replaced ${python:Depends} by ${python3:Depends}, then launched
"debuild", and had a look at the file python-satellites.substvars
this file contains:
------------------8<------------------------
misc:Depends=
misc:Pre-Depends=
------------------8<------------------------
Should I raise a bug report? the environment used was not a chroot made
by pbuilder, and dh-python came in version 2.20150826.

You are right! I only need the package which contains pyuic4 to convert
user interfaces designed with Qt designer.

humm.. As this package does not create libraries very useful for other
developers, I suppose that it might as well be treated as a private
library: so the scripts should rather go to /usr/share/pysatellites, and
the package should just be named "pysatellites" rather than
python3-satellites. What do you think about it?
Best regards, Georges
