Final Comment
Hi,
FYI, the sShipped pytest plugin has an undeclared runtime dependency. The wheel is configured to install the test plugin along with the library (pyproject.toml:39 → src/testing/legacy_api_wrap), and that module does a top-level import pytest (src/testing/legacy_api_wrap/pytest.py:10). But pytest is only a Build-Depends with <!nocheck> (debian/control:12), so the installed python3-legacy-api-wrap contains a module that cannot be imported (import testing.legacy_api_wrap.pytest) unless the user separately installs pytest. Either ship the plugin as its own package/Recommends, or declare pytest as a dependency.
That doesn't stop the accept - just something you might want to fix for your next upload.
Thanks!
