Bug#888307: devscripts: reproducible-check is missing python3-xdg as a dependency

[Nicolas Sévelin-Radiguet]

Package: devscripts
Version: 2.17.12
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainers,

   * What led up to the situation?
    Trying to use reproducible-check
    
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
    Install devscripts package without recommended nor suggested packages
    
   * What was the outcome of this action?
    $ reproducible-check 
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/usr/bin/reproducible-check", line 29, in <module>
        from xdg.BaseDirectory import xdg_cache_home
    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'xdg'
    
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
   reproducible-check to work properly

Installing python3-xdg solves the issue. You should consider it as a dependency of the devscripts package.
python3-xdg is currently a recommended package.

Cheers,
Nicolas
