The impact of dropping python-dns from python-formencode depends should actually be understood before the MIR for python-formencode is approved:

[09:39:57] <ScottK> ttx: It ought to at least build and dropping python-dns from depends with no rationale is just wrong.
[09:40:19] <ScottK> POX: Thanks.
[09:40:26] <POX> python-dns is probably removed as it's not in main
[09:40:28] <zul> i just uploaded the FTBFS fix
[09:40:43] <ttx> I'm trying to avoid duplicating work :)
[09:40:49] <zul> and removed python-dns as well
[09:40:53] <ScottK> POX: Yes, but we aren't supposed to just drop depends willy nilly.
[09:40:56] <ScottK> zul: Why?
[09:41:08] <zul> because its not in main
[09:41:18] <ScottK> zul: That's not a proper rationale.
[09:41:26] <zul> and the testsuite ran fine without it
[09:41:42] <ScottK> And so that means there's no impact?
[09:41:58] <zul> didnt appear to any to me
