Yes. > Zope3.3 has been uploaded a few > days after the official release, so the "lately" doesn't apply to the > context. I meant lately in the sense of recently. I guess it wasn't very clear. But waiting with the Zope 3.3 upload wouldn't have helped very much anyway, for reasons I explain below. > > SchoolBell needs to be updated to work with Zope 3.3, but it looks as if > > upstream is not willing to make that happen.

SchoolTool and SchoolBell now both depend independently on a collection of libraries under the schooltool.* namespace. The schoolbell module will still exist, but is almost empty and just for backwards compatibility. So, both schooltool and schoolbell should depend on python-schooltool and be built from the same source package. SchoolBell was broken during this development, and never fixed. So there are 3 paths that I can see: 1. Update the current schoolbell to work with Zope 3.3 2. Fix the current development branch of schoolbell so that it works. 3. Remove schoolbell from testing until 1 or 2 is done. There just hasn't been the volunteers or paid development to do 1 or 2, so it must be 3. > How can upstream release > a zope 3.3-compatible product for one without the other one? Since schooltool doesn't depend on schoolbell anymore, this can be done. > Are you > talking about just `schoolbell.app'? I think it is just a matter of > conditional import, isn't it? schoolbell.app does not exist anymore. The code that was schoolbell.app is now at schooltool.sbapp. -- Brian Sutherland Metropolis - "it's the first movie with a robot. And she's a woman.
