Hi, As a proof of concept I've gone and done the changes needed to pull this off on a fork of the git repo in my personal namespace. https://salsa.debian.org/olasd/astroid The astroid source package is in the master / upstream branches; The astroid2 source package is in the astroid2 / upstream-1.x branches. I had to do some wrangling of the astroid source package, to convert it to pybuild, because the default setuptools buildsystem only works when python2 is in the build depends. I could see a point in splitting the git repositories but I don't think that's very critical. I'm happy to do a NMU in a week so that we can move forward with the split package plan.
