Package: python-reportlab
Version: 3.5.23-1
Severity: important

The binary package python3-renderpm (source: python-reportlab) depends on the gsfonts package and this dependency should be replaced by fonts-urw-base35.

The purpose of the gsfonts package is providing the 35 standard PostScript fonts to Ghostscript, so that Ghostscript can render any standards-conforming PostScript file.

The gsfonts package got replaced by the fonts-urw-base35 packages. gsfonts is not maintained any more upstream (our package has the last upstream source update in 2007) and the upstream source locations mentioned in debian/copyright do not exist any more.

To get rid of the duplication and also of the unmaintained package the dependency in python3-renderpm need to get updated.
