Package: python-netaddr
Version: 0.7.12-2
Severity: important
Tags: upstream
Dear Maintainer,
While using python-netaddr to match IP addresses against various sets of
addresses, we noticed that the IPSet class is very slow on Debian jessie.
This is apparently a known issue which first appeared in python-netaddr
0.7.10 and was fixed in version 0.7.15.
A test case for this exact issue can be found on
https://github.com/drkjam/netaddr/issues/94
A fix was committed upstream in
https://github.com/drkjam/netaddr/commit/7b9093f4a2bb539007c4bc8d2a2d7464f23f9350
that addresses this issue
We confirmed that upgrading the package to the version in stretch
(0.7.18) solves the issue for us.
Unfortunately, our company policy forbids us from installing packages
found in anything other than the jessie repository.
Would it be possible to backport the package currently in stretch to jessie?
Regards,
François
