Removing packages from zesty:
xapian1.3-bindings 1.3.4-0ubuntu1 in zesty
python-xapian1.3 1.3.4-0ubuntu1 in zesty amd64
python-xapian1.3 1.3.4-0ubuntu1 in zesty arm64
python-xapian1.3 1.3.4-0ubuntu1 in zesty armhf
This bug was fixed in the package apt-xapian-index - 0.47ubuntu12

apt-xapian-index (0.47ubuntu12) zesty; urgency=medium
* d/control: Drop the explicit Depends/Build-Depends on
python3-xapian1.3 since that was a development snapshot we only used
in our port to Python 3.
IIRC, the a-x-i dependency on xapian1.3-bindings was because at the time
only 1.3 support Python 3. I'll do some simple testing to see if we can
just use python3-xapian. I suspect that will work just fine.

ok, opened a task on apt-xapian-index so that this can be dealt with
first before removal.

Incidentally, please note that although launchpad lists me as
"maintainer" of this package, I had nothing to do with creating it - I
guess I'm listed there as it was forked from a package I maintain in
Debian, and someone was too slack to update the metadata properly.

I've not looked at how it was packaged, but the upstream code looks to
be compatible.

This package is still in use by apt-xapian-index. How should this be
handled? Is python3-xapian a drop-in replacement for python3-xapian1.3?
