I have no problem with this, and I think it's good thing to be in sync with upstream releases. I strongly support this goal. However, again, the problem is the lack of coordination and upload without checking anything on the reverse dependencies, just like what happened last July. Once, I would understand. But since that's the second time, I have to tell that it's my opinion it shouldn't have happen this way. > 0.8.X → 0.9.X changes are not that big and I even considered uploading 0.9.1 > directly to unstable. I used experimental where you had more than a > month to test it. Things don't go that fast in OpenStack. It usually takes about a month or so to get a commit reviewed and approved. Plus there was some problems with the gating system, which slows down things. Anyway, saying that "I had more than one month to test" is IMO irrelevant. I strongly believe that you should have checked before uploading a key library with so many reverse dependencies, or at least ask the current package maintainers (a short email would have been enough). And possibly, also ask the release team to manage the transition. That's why we have transitions managed by the release team by the way: to make sure nothing breaks too bad just like right now. > "recovering" from artificial limits that I enforce on all > python-sqlalchemy's reverse dependencies by generating << X.Y > dependency. Recovering from the lack of SQLAlchemy 0.8.x support from upstream. They've just switched to 0.8.x, and now, everything broke again as soon as upstream supports SQLA 0.8. I just hope it wont happen again the same way, cause it just drives me crazy. > I'm pretty sure that 99% of packages will need simple > rebuild. All of OpenStack is already more than 99%. That's more than 25% of the 40 reverse dependencies of python-sqlalchemy, according to apt-rdepends. > Those who don't will block python-sqlalchemy's migration (they > already have appropriate Depends line) Which IMO, not what should have happened. python-sqlalchemy should have been uploaded only when we had support for all reverse dependencies. That's what all other distributions are doing: Ubuntu, RedHat, etc. I just don't understand why you just carelessly rushed for a 2nd time. >> any coordination, yet you're doing it again.

I'm not sure for Alembic, but at least python-migrate doesn't support SQLAlchemy 0.9 (as you can see on the above log). I'm also convinced that there will be more breakage once SQLA-Migrate is fixed. By the way, using apt-rdepends shows that also: buildbot, openlp, pytrainer and zine depend on python-migrate, and will have troubles. Help on fixing python-migrate upstream would be appreciated, I believe. > [...] >> Please revert this upload immediately (with an EPOC) and until other >> packages have reasonable upstream support for it. > > I will not do that! I can understand why you don't want to back up. However, it'd be nice if you could consider having a bit of coordination *before* uploading any new major release of SQLAlchemy in the future. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo) P.S: Even if I was really shocked yesterday by this upload, I will keep no hard feelings this time again, and I will try to deal with this as much and as fast as possible. But I don't expect OpenStack to be fixed before a few months at least, and hope that we will manage major SQLA upgrades better next time. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
