Package: lintian sent to https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2015/06/msg00022.html
The packages built for the Python debug interpreters should not be stripped. Usually this has to be done on a per package basis, however when converting to the pybuild system, this is easily missed. It is now documented in [1], but I assume a lot of packages just strip the -dbg packages. Maybe lintian should warn about python -dbg package, - when the extension for the debug interpreter is stripped. - when the -dbg package doesn't contain the debug information for the normal extension build.
