[Bug 2028054] Re: [MIR] python-rlpycairo

[Till Kamppeter]

The binary package libsane-hpaio DOES NOT depend on the binary package
hplip, not even indirectly, so the binary package hplip can get demoted
to Universe.

the binary package printer-driver-hpcups also does not depend on the
binary package hplip, but printer-driver-hpcups itself can already get
demoted to Universe as we replace the printer drivers by Printer
Application Snaps (this driver provided by the HPLIP Printer
Application, hplip-printer-app).

So hp-scan as part of the binary package hplip will go to Universe, hp-
sendfax as part of the binary package hplip-gui is already in Universe.

Title:
  [MIR] python-rlpycairo

Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in python-reportlab package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in python-rlpycairo package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  python-rlpycairo is a new dependency of python-reportlab (currently
  owned by Foundations).

  The only consumer of python-reportlab is hplip (owned by Desktop),
  apparently it needs it for scanning: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
  bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=651240

  $ reverse-depends src:python-reportlab -c main -r mantic
  Reverse-Depends
  ===============
  * hplip                         (for python3-reportlab)

  Packages without architectures listed are reverse-dependencies in:
  amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, s390x

  src:hplip -> src:python-reportlab -> src:python-rlpycairo ->
  src:freetype-py & src:ttf-bitstream-vera

  So from the above, it sounds like this new dependency is actually
  needed (after the reportlab package dropped its renderpm extension).
  It should be discussed between Foundations and Desktop who's owning
  those dependencies and doing the MIRs for python-rlpycairo, freetype-
  py and ttf-bitstream-vera
