Bug Description

I installed python3-bluez on Ubuntu 20.04:
 $> sudo apt install python3-bluez

However, using this package in python3 leads to an error:
 $> python3
 Python 3.8.2 (default, Jul 16 2020, 14:00:26)
 [GCC 9.3.0] on linux
 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> import bluetooth.ble
 Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
   File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/bluetooth/ble.py", line 1, in <module>
     from gattlib import *
 ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'gattlib'

I tried searching for package with "gattlib" in its name, but apt does not find anything.

I get the same error message when attempting to import ble with python3-bluez 0.23-1ubuntu1 on Ubuntu Groovy. Doing some more research, I found the corresponding Debian bug report, see the attached bug watch.
