    Well, then let's downgrade the bug. Breakage in some reverse
    dependencies without any evidence is not enough for an RC bug. So far
    the only issue was python3-requests having overly strict version
    constraints.

    If there is still breakage, please file bugs against the affected
    packages, at the appropriate severity. This bug is now unactionable
    and thus I'm closing it.
