# `build-depends-on-python-dev-with-no-arch-any`

The given package appears to have a Python development package (`python3-dev`, `python3-all-dev` or `pythonX.Y-dev`) listed in its `Build-Depends` or `Build-Depends-Indep` fields, but only `Architecture: all` packages are built by this source package. Python applications and modules do not usually require those dev packages, so you should consider removing them in favour of `python3`, `python3-all` or `pythonX.Y`.

If you are building a Python extension instead, you should have development packages listed in `Build-Depends`, but normally there should be at least one `Architecture: any` package.

Severity: | `info`
Experimental: | `false`
