Option 1: fix all four packages to be python 2 free.

Option 3: Remove python2 stuff from traceback2, modify python-funcsigs
so it still builds the python2 package but does not run tests with
python 2.
Funcsigs is a backport of the PEP 362 function signature features from
Python 3.3's inspect module.
Thanks for the info.
Python 2 has never been removed from this
package. Though instead, we shall remove this source package entirely
from Debian.

If what you say is correct then it sounds like the python3-funcsigs revese
depedencies could be dealt with fairly easily.
But that still leaves the question of what to do about the dependency of pytest
on pypy-funcsigs ? should pypy modules be removed from pytest and it's
reverse-dependencies in the same way that regular python2 modules were? how
feasible is that? are pypy-* packages only useful with python2 pypy or are they
also useful with python3 pypy?
Traceback2 *already* has Python 2 support removed in Sid. I uploaded
this on the 21st of march, pressured by its potential autoremoval.
Sorry it seems I got my package names mixed up when writing the list of
options. I said traceback2 where I meant unittest2.
There's no other choice but to fix nipype at this point, or wait until
it gets autoremoved from Testing.
It already was autoremoved from testing.
IMO, it'd be fine to NMU a new
upstream release if you contact the current maintainer and/or using the
delayed queue.
A new upstream release for a package I do not use is not something I feel
comfortable NMUing. I was hoping that my initial mail would prompt action on
the parts of the nipype maintainers but if they don't respond then I tend
towards ignoring breakage of sid-only packages that need non-trivial fixes.
IMO, we should get unittest2 free of Py2 support ASAP, and open an FTP
team bug to get funcsigs removed from Debian.
