Hi all, Could anyone point me at a Debian package (possibly using dh) where multiple compilation are done (one against python3.7 and one against python3.8). I'd like to avoid re-inventing the wheel for building a cmake package (c++) which ships a single python module (so I need to do one configure+build+install per python version).
