This change is the start of: * Dropping support for Python 2 * Dropping support for Debian older than Buster (oldoldstable) * Dropping support for Ubuntu older than Focal (20.04) Further changes will update the minimum debhelper version and Debian Standards version. It's the debhelper bump which motivated dropping support for Ubuntu Bionic.
python_distutils is no longer supported as a buildsystem and pybuild is required instead.
I read through the changelogs here and as far as I can tell we're as compliant with the changes as we were with the previous standards. Please open issues for Standards violations. They won't always be addressed but we can note them in the README.
And seemingly no longer necessary.
This is creating trouble during tests. Scripts are being installed to usr/local/bin instead of usr/bin and aside from the fact that this is tripping up the dh_usrlocal helper it is incorrect. This reverts commit f8c8b15.

This change is the start of:
Dropping support for Python 2Dropping support for running stdeb scripts as python2.Further commits will update the minimum debhelper version and Debian Standards version. It's the debhelper bump which motivated dropping support for Ubuntu Bionic.
I'm going to attempt to preserve support for generating python2 package data using stdeb on python3. However, my capacity to test such changes and my personal need in packaging python2 projects is severely limited. I'll be very happy to review contributions that support this if I cannot make it work myself.
