With all due respect, this kind of response is ridiculous. Don't take
this personally, I'm talking about the situation, not your reply.
I'm using Ubuntu, not Debian, so I report a problem in Ubuntu, not in
Debian, and whatever steps Ubuntu need to take to resolve the problem
should be handled by Ubuntu itself. Asking an user to go somewhere
else for help with a problem in Ubuntu gives a VERY VERY BAD
IMPRESSION.
If I where an average user who took the time to learn how and where
to report a problem, just to be told "go somewhere else, figure out
how they do things, register in their web so you can report and leave
us alone", I'd just stop using Ubuntu all together.
If I used Debian, Arch, Fedora, SuSe or any other distribution, I
wouldn't be reporting a problem TO Ubuntu, but just so happens that
I'm an user of Ubuntu, and here is my report. I refuse to go somewhere
else.
Back on topic about the python3-ebooklib package, Ubuntu can choose
not to distribute an unmaintained package if that's the best option
they have, but distributing an OLD, OUTDATED and BUGGY package is
plain wrong.
