On the Artful upload wearing my SRU hat, I'm not sure it's appropriate for us to release an SRU solely to fix a dep8 test, as that's not user impacting but does involve a potential regression due to a rebuild and certainly a bunch of downloads for all Artful dovecot users. I've posted https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2018-March/004352.html to ask for consensus for a policy on this.
