Fedora EPEL Update Notification
FEDORA-EPEL-2026-7bb698a477
2026-09-16 00:51:34.349662+00:00
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : python-configargparse
Product     : Fedora EPEL 9
Version     : 1.7.7
Release     : 1.el9
URL         : https://github.com/bw2/ConfigArgParse
Summary     : Replacement for argparse that allows options to be set via config 
files
Description :
A drop-in replacement for argparse that allows options to also be set via
config files and/or environment variables.

Applications with more than a handful of user-settable options are best
configured through a combination of command line args, config files, hard-coded
defaults, and in some cases, environment variables.

Python’s command line parsing modules such as argparse have very limited
support for config files and environment variables, so this module extends
argparse to add these features.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Update to 1.7.7.
Version 1.7.6 is a security fix for
GHSA-6m27-337c-jcgf.
Config file or environment variable can trigger writing out a config file,
overwriting an arbitrary file and disclosing configuration values.
Version 1.7.7 contains a bug fix: args with a custom argparse.Action and nargs
can now be set from a config file.
