I understand that, but... apparently `steam` (third party, closed
source) does have that dependency :( so it'll need to be updated.

Title:
  python-is-python3 & python-is-python2 do not Provides: python

Status in python-defaults package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This is a bug in Focal prerelease.

  Third-party packages like Steam currently appear to Depend: upon
  python, but nothing Provides: python, only Conflicts: python.

  I believe that python-is-... should Provide: python so that packages
  that expect to use /usr/bin/python aren't surprised.
