"    This patch adds the python3-venv module as a self-contained package which
    python3-pyvenv must depend on at run-time."

python3-pyvenv does't exist.

I'd simply rewrite the message along the follow lines:

  python3: add python3-venv package
  Package both the venv module and the pyvenv binaries into the
python3-venv package.
  Add python3-pyvenv RPROVIDES to python3-venv for backward compatibility.
