Hi!

I'm both the main upstream maintainer and the packager.

This bug is marked as forwarded to the upstream issue at
https://github.com/mopidy/mopidy/issues/779. That issue is also pinned
to the top of the upstream issues list.

tl;dr: Work porting Mopidy to Python 3 is ongoing. It is not blocked by
any dependencies, it is just plain regular work that needs to be
completed.

Bug#849091: Port to Python 3 and python3-gst-1.0

Hi,

I'm surprised to see no reply from the maintainer(s) when this bug has
been opened in 2016. This isn't reassuring, and likely to cause the
package to drop from Debian, especially as the Python team is actively
doing Python 2 removal.

Is this transition to Python 3 planned? What does upstream say?

Just an update here, this will likely happen in the next 2-3 months
with the next upstream release. Your package will become uninstallable
at that point unless it is ported to Python 3.

Hi,

your package currently depends on python-gst-1.0. Upstream is planning
to drop Python 2.x support in the near future, leaving only Python 3
support.

Please update your package to Python 3 to make this as painless as
possible later. Thanks!
