Update Debian package to run Dogtail using Python 3
Originally created by @anonym on #12185 (Redmine)
Currently we install python-dogtail, which uses Python 2 and makes it
impossible to deal with objects containing unicode character (e.g. “Save
As…” (note the triple dots)).
The Debian packaging repo for dogtail has switched to Python 3 since almost a year back, but there has been no release since then. However, I tried building a package and installing it, and it worked fine vs unicode strings at least.
Part of the “Make test suite survive tech changes” roadmap item.
