    Hi,

    Please remove the python-pytest-flake8 package. In #1068502, it is
    described as "dead upstream and broken", and (with my "python team"
    hat) we believe it should be removed from Debian.

    There's only one reverse dependency, rpmlint. A bug was filed against
    said package (#1101179) but rpmlint is orphaned and it doesn't seem
    legitimate to block on that. Let rpmlint break since the fix is,
    anyways, to remove the dependency. It seems rpmlint could simply be
    updated to upstream, which I will try to do now.
