Bug Description
Python packages should not ship /usr/lib/
Recently, two packages python3-alembic and python3-astroid both shipped these files which collided on package install
dh-python has been improved upstream to stream all hidden "dot" directories in Debian #907871
This change should be imported and both alembic and astroid should be rebuilt (plus any other packages shipping this file)

It appears these packages are in main but mainly pulled in (at least on my system) by 'devscripts'. This affects cosmic.
