New comment by dmarto on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/39459#issuecomment-1257219293 Comment: Again just for the record for anyone reading this. I rechecked the bug report in debian (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=996569) looks like, it is not actually being removed until `getmail` releases a python3 version, only the transitional package was removed in `debian bookworm`. From Sudip Mukherjee, maintainer of `getmail{,6}` in debian: > Not just Debian but all the distros need to have a Python3 version of > getmail and getmail6 is the only alternative available now. I will be > very very happy to remove getmail6 when you release a Python3 version > of getmail. But until then I will only remove the transitional > package.
