Bug#724718: Dependency packaging for 2.8.15

2017-01-03 Thread Carl Suster

I have now more carefully investigated the dependencies and added blocking bugs:

REQUIREMENT   SRC PACKAGE  STATUS BUGS
--
Safe>=0.4 safe ITP#850088
colorclass>=2.2.0 colorclass   ITP#850087
flask-cors>=2.1.2 flask-cors   ITP#850091
flask-restplus==0.8.6 flask-restplus   ITP#850089
rpyc  rpyc ITP#850097
terminaltables>=3.1.0 terminaltables   ITP#850093
FeedParser>=5.2.1 feedparser   OUTDATED
cherrypy>=3.7.0   cherrypy3OUTDATED   #828942
subliminal >= 2.0rc1  subliminal   OUTDATED   #850098
vcrpy>=1.7.4  vcr.py   OUTDATED
flask-login>=0.4.0flask-login  PY2-ONLY   #802614
pynzb pynzbPY2-ONLY

Droppable dependencies: I think that coverage checks are not particularly 
relevant to the debian package, so I can avoid having to package 
codacy-coverage. Similarly, gitpython seems to only be used in a script to 
update the upstream changelog, so I can also omit that.


Pinned versions: Note that guessit and flask-restplus are pinned to old 
versions by upstream flexget. If flask-restplus can't be unpinned then I'll 
have to adjust the ITP to package the old version flexget wants. If guessit can 
be unpinned (which I suspect it can since the dependency conflict which cause 
the situation seems to have disappeared in new upstream guessit) then that will 
possibly also need to be updated before flexget can be packaged. See: 
https://requires.io/github/Flexget/Flexget/requirements/?branch=master


pynzb: Upstream seems abandoned as it hasn't been touched in 8 years. This is 
why it's a python2-only package. Only one flexget plugin needs this dependency 
so it could be reasonable to just patch that out for now to simplify things. 
Since pynzb is pretty small SLOC-wise it might be possible to eventually adopt 
it upstream or convince someone else to take over.


Since there is a lot of work to be done this could take me a while but I'll try 
not to let the effort lapse again! Hopefully I can get some help from the 
Python modules team.




Bug#724718: Dependency packaging for 2.8.15

2017-01-03 Thread Carl Suster

Just an update to say I've recommenced work on packaging flexget.

I'm looking at upstream 2.8.15, and my quick `apt search`ing has identified the 
following dependencies issues mentioned in the requirements files:


REQUIREMENT   DEBIAN PACKAGE  STATUS
--
Safe>=0.4 MISSING
codacy-coverage>=1.2.18   MISSING
colorclass>=2.2.0 MISSING
flask-cors>=2.1.2 MISSING
flask-restplus==0.8.6 MISSING
gitpython MISSING
rpyc  MISSING
terminaltables>=3.1.0 MISSING
vcrpy>=1.7.4  MISSING
FeedParser>=5.2.1 python*-feedparser  OUTDATED
cherrypy>=3.7.0   python*-cherrypy3   OUTDATED
subliminal >= 2.0rc1  python*-subliminal  OUTDATED
flask-login>=0.4.0python-flask-login  PY2-ONLY
pynzb python-pynzbPY2-ONLY

For starters I've been updating python*-cherrypy3 to the latest upstream as a 
way of getting used to the python modules team workflow. After updating all of 
the outdated existing packages, I'll work on packaging the missing ones. I'll 
look for sponsors within the python teams.
