Package: src:hovercraft
Version: 2.7-7
Severity: normal
Tags: sid trixie
User: [email protected]
Usertags: pkg-resources-deprecation
[This bug is targeted to the upcoming trixie release]
The package build-depends or depends on python3-pkg-resources, which is
deprecated upstream. Details can be found at
https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html
Use of pkg_resources is deprecated in favor of importlib.resources,
importlib.metadata and their backports (importlib_resources,
importlib_metadata).
Some useful APIs are also provided by packaging (e.g. requirements and version
parsing). Users should refrain from new usage of pkg_resources and should work
to port to importlib-based solutions.
Python 3.12 in unstable provides both importlib_resources and
importlib_metadata, so no additional dependencies on those packages are needed.

Closes: 1083431 1120179
Changes:
hovercraft (2.7-11) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Team upload.
* removed pkg_resources as a (build-)dependency, using bare os.path's
functions. Closes: #1083431
* patched test data in tests/test-data/__init__.py, because now
hovercraft uses decimal numbers instead of hexadecimal when encoding
UTF-8 instances to HTML. Closes: #1120179
* patched also tests/test-data/__init__.py and tests/test_parse.py
because in sid, new instances with empty text are inserted during
the generation of HTML code.
