Bug#944551: lintian: missing-python-build-dependency false positive



Hi Thorsten,

Actually, I believe Lintian is just not considering your python3-
minimal dependency has an adequate Python dependency.

I assume it works fine with that "minimal" version in your package,
but I'm a little hesitant to enlarge the allowed packages to include
these wwithout knowing more about the subtle differences between them
all...
