The debian/patches written by gbp pq are compatable with quilt. The patches written to by quilt can be read using gbp pq import. While gbp pq has a patch queue stored in git, you probably don't want to push this to a shared repo. But: If you create patches with quilt, and then import and export them using gbp pq you might find that gbp pq wants to make minor/trivial changes to the unchanged patch files. Which can be irritating when making security patches, etc. Maybe this is why the practise is not recommended? -- Brian May @ Debian

There are tools that will help you do this. e.g. pyenv, asdf, etc. But, yes, for my own software development, I gave up trying to use Debian python packages years ago, because I found I was spending way more time trying to package the required dependencies (and dependencies of dependencies of dependencies) then I spending developing my application. This gets even worse if you want to support rpm based distributions. Plus the fact that I was becoming increasingly concerned that if I upgraded library python3-L for application A, I might accidentally break applications B, C, and D also, and testing/fixing everything at the same time not really feasible. So now I use asdf + poetry/virtualenvs now, plus Docker for distribution. As a result, I can upgrade the dependencies in each application one application at a time. If an application breaks, I just need to fix that one application, without breaking everything else at the same time. I can upgrade the OS distribution, and not be concerned (mostly anyway) that it will break my applications in weird and wonderful ways that I could not predict. This isn't so useful for distribution of Python based desktop applications, but I don't do a lot of that (and probably would be looking for a good off-the-shelf solution if I did). -- Brian May

This makes absolutely no sense. A rolling type update might be convenient, but it is not supported by Debian, and has not been supported by Debian in sometime. There are complexities in such an arrangement, and it is difficult to test such arrangements will work as expected. Such an arrangement is not guaranteed or tested to work. In short, if you want to upgrade to Debian version n, you really should be running entirely Debian n-1 before you start the upgrade. This is important. And you probably should upgrade everything in one go. As this is the only tested upgrade procedure. -- Brian May

I believe there are a number of Python packages in Debian unstable that are out of date in respect to latest upstream. e.g. https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=bam%40debian.org=yes Somebody needs to do the work to update them. But maybe the fact that nobody is doing so, might mean that nobody is using them? The packages which are up-to-date have not been updated by upstream in a long time, and this isn't necessarily a good thing either. I personally found a while back that keeping these packages up-to-date was draining far too much of my time. Time I don't actually have. So I now use Docker+pip for my applications. Plus upgrading system packages to fix dependencies always made me worried I might break something unrelated that I couldn't or wasn't ready to fix. So most of the time I don't use these packages anymore. Yes, the idea of the packages being stable in Debian stable, and hence, won't break anything until you do a release upgrade is a good one. But if you encounter a bug/missing feature in such a package that breaks your application, often the only real alternative is to use the latest version. Often only the latest version is supported by upstream also. -- Brian May

If you want strong ownership, you can get that already by not having the package part of the team. To invite people to do so as part of the Debian policy just makes the policy more complicated (and confusing) then it needs to be. And creates needless conflicts within our team. Depending on what you want, You are also free to follow the packaging guidelines, policies, etc, even if the package isn't formally part of the team.

Hello, Beginning to think we should seriously think about dropping this package. It is badly neglected by upstream, and there are now better alternatives. Such as django-celery-results (not sure if this is in Debian). I attempted to fix it by upgrading to the latest upstream version (see git repository), but there are a number of python errors running tests, and I lack the interest in attempting to fix them (although at quick glance some of these errors look trivial to fix...)

I believe there is (or at least was, and probably still is) general agreement that the Django settings mechanism is horrible for numerous reasons. IIRC this has been discussed at past PyCON AU conferences. Unfortunately, this has been labelled as a "hard problem". As in coming up with a replacement that the Django core developers can agree to is non-trivial (which also means dealing with existing applications in a sensible manner). e.g. do a google search for "django settings class" and you will see that there are a number of projects to get class based settings for Django. A feature I really wish Django supported out of the box. Unfortunately most of these projects (I might have missed something) appear to have been abandoned. Maybe this is an isssue that needs to be pushed at PyCon or PyConAU. If there isn't an existing upstream bug report already, somebody should definitely file one. Or add details as to how the problem affects testing, if not already given.

The only major issue is the lack of proper procedure on how do the master --> debian/master branch rename. As in I think the procedures leaves behind a master branch, and keeps it as the default. I have a script on git.debian.org - hopefully everyone should be able to read this: /srv/home/users/bam/convert Which will handle the entire conversion. Must be run on git.debian.org, and for best results git should have your username and email setup on git.debian.org. Works for me for every case, except for the one package where I hadn't pushed upstream changes correctly beforehand. The script also includes the correct procedure for converting from master to debian/master. -- Brian May <b...@debian.org>

Re: gbp pq conversion
The one mistake I seem to often make with gbp pq is import the new sources and then discover I forgot to one "gbp pq import". The "gbp pq import" needs to happen first (if not already done), before importing new sources. Otherwise "gbp pq rebase" and "gbp pq export" can end up deleting all patches. The solution I have found is 1. Create a temporary branch at the current commit git branch tmp 2. Take the debian/master branch to the previous "good" commit: git reset --hard version origin/debian/master change the origin/debian/master as appropriate. 3. Import the patch queue (possibly might need to delete any existing patches branch first): gbp pq import 4. Go back to the latest version: git reset --hard tmp git branch -d tmp Note that "gbp pq import" must be done in the correct branch, as the name of the patch branch is based on the current branch. Also note that the "gbp pq import" must be done on patches unapplied format, so don't go too far back in the history. -- Brian May <b...@debian.org>

So to me it looks like the required changes are: * Rename Author field to From. Ensure it is first field. * Add Date field. Set to what? * Rename Description to Subject. * Ensure blank line before description. * Remove space at start of every line in description. * Ensure blank line after description. The Applied-upstream field looks nice to have, but maybe not essential. Is this correct? Did I miss anything? A tool to automate some, if not all of this, would be good.

I suspect a related issue is packages that build fine, but the tests don't actually run tests against all python versions.

However, just because some random distribution is supporting Python 2 past 2020, doesn't mean we have any obligation to do so. Also "we support Python 2.7" doesn't mean "support Python 2.7 in unstable." It is possible that we will continue supporting Stretch, post 2020 as a LTS release. https://wiki.debian.org/LTS Providing *full* Python 2.7 support in unstable is likely to prove to be harder and harder when various upstreams start dropping Python 2.7 support, starting with Django this December. e.g. When Django drops support, and we upload that version to unstable, suddenly everything that depends on Django will also fail to work under Python 2.7. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/2.0/ If Django 2.0 is released on schedule, I would like to see it in Buster - assuming our release cycle remains every 2 years, that will make it early 2019.

I have also accidentally uploaded to unstable instead of experimental for the same reason. IIRC I didn't understand how the sbuild options worked. I have now put a check in my build scripts to prevent this type of mistake happening. I strongly recommend to use dput-ng, it will stop this kind of mistake.

If I understand this command correctly, it is showing everything that depends directly and indirectly on python-amqp? Hmm. Looks like a large number of these are due to python-oslo.messaging.

As an uploader for celery, kombu, and python-amqp, I see no problem myself. I can't speak for other packages, and definitely I can't speak for packages not under DPMT. For now, I would suggest creating a debian/experimental branch, switching to gbp pq (as using non-standard branch names is easier with gbp pq), and then continuing. I have done this already for the python-mkdocs package. If you need any help, let me know.

I would never just blindly disable signature checking or update the key without carefully checking that this is legitimate first (and/or carefully checking the diff). For example, if releases were signed by person A, but now signed by person B, there should be some sort of public record of this fact. If not, ask on a public forum. If you remove signatures (or don't supply them in the first place), then we - as Debian packagers - have no way of validating the upload.

One reason I have found for myself: I can forget to sign the package when uploading to PyPI, and PyPI doesn't let you make any changes after the package is uploaded without changing the version (including adding signature file). There is a long running bug report on this, it is not going to get fixed (TLDR it is not a bug, it is a design feature to allow for caching). Maybe there is some way of turning signatures on by default, so I don't have to remember for every upload, if so, I haven't been able to work it out yet however. -- Brian May <b...@debian.org>

Lintian will remind the > maintainer if a Debian source package is not taking advantage of this. A related issue is: Should we be using PyPI as our source of packages? Or github? You mention a very good reason why PyPI should be the preferred form, packages *can* be signed by the author. However, often packages in PyPI are not the complete source package you would get from github. They may be sufficient for installations, but often not for Debian packaging - which really should have the complete source package. e.g. they can be missing tests, license files, documentation that doesn't get installed, etc. Sure, you could argue that PyPI source packages should contain everything the github package does. In fact there is a PyPI tool to help get the MANIFEST.in correct for such purposes - https://pypi.python.org/pypi/check-manifest; however a counter argument could also be made that upstrems generally don't care about such issues - probably won't notice any regressions - if it installs from PyPI that is all that really matters - and the only way we can be sure we are getting the complete source iis from github. Unfortunately, github releases cannot (AFAIK) easily be signed, unless you retrieve signed git tags directly from git (which is not supported by uscan AFAIK). Would be good if gbp buildpackage supported signing git tags, I don't think it does either. I started off thinking github was the best source, then slowly swayed towards PyPI, now I am thinking maybe github again. Comments? Some related issues: * Do we consider signed git tags / commits secure, considering they are based on SHA1? * Is there any point having signed PyPI releases when (very likely) the underlying upstream git repository has no signatures? * Is there any point having signed PyPI releases when (very likely) the public key is stored in an insecure DPMT respository on git.debian.org? -- Brian May <b...@debian.org>

Brian May <b...@debian.org> writes: > git read-tree --reset -u upstream > git reset -- debian > git checkout debian > git rm debian/.git-dpm I have tried these steps on python-mkdocs in the debian/experimental branch, and then upgraded to the latest upstream (using instructions on wiki). Works perfectly[1]. The only unexpected problem I had is that "gbp import-orig --uscan", by default, switches to the master branch and attempts to merge the new upstream there. Which wasn't going to work, because master still is the patches-applied git-dpm version. I had assumed that it would work on the current branch; it doesn't. The wiki should be ammended with instructions on how to edit debian/gbp.conf at the appropriate steps. Writing a new default to debian/gbp.conf does fix this. The above also assumes that upstream==origin/upstream==latest upstream. Which means you need to have done a git pull recently on the upstream branch. Depending on the circumstances, using origin/upstream might be a better choice rather then upstream.

One thing we could do right now, for selected packages, is create a debian/experimental branch, switch to gbp-pq, update to latest upstream, and upload to experimental. This will not interfere in any way to do updates to unstable/testing - which still use the master branch, and similarly won't cause any confusion which branch to use. These packages that we do this to probably should be excluded from any post-freeze automatic bulk switch to gbp-pq however. As the procedure is likely to different (unless there are changes in the master branch, this probably just involve creating a new debian/master branch from debian/experimental and deleting the old master branch). It might pay to have a list somewhere of packages that have already been converted to gbp-pq, and what branches. Of course it is easy to autodetect this too, just look for the presence of a debian/.git-dpm file in that selected branches. Before doing any automated conversion, we should make the following checks on the following branches: * master: exists and has debian/.git-dpm file * debian/master: this branch should not exist - no DPMT package should be using this branch name yet. * debian/experimental: if this exists it should have a debian/.git-dpm If any of these checks fails, the respository should be converted manually. Or it might be an indication that the repository is already in the required format. Any other branches are probably not that important for the initial conversion and can be done manually as required. Assuming at the moment, that only few packages would require manual processing, otherwise this may require a rethink. -- Brian May <b...@debian.org>

I seem to remember some maintainers having problems with non-standard branch names under git dpm. So one valid reason for not adopting different branches will no longer apply. I personally think that DEP14 would be a good idea. I think the only difference people would notice is that master is renamed to debian/master. We would need to be careful though, having both a master and a debian/master - even during transition planning - could be confusing. Which one do I update?

More importantly, from my perspective, I am unlikely to be making any significant changes (in fact maybe no changes) to any of my packages until after the freeze. So there doesn't seem to be much point in trying to rush this through, right now. After the freeze, some of my packages will no doubt require updating the the latest upstream version. This will be a good test for gbp pq. If people wanted to, now would be a good time to document/implement/test the procedure for doing the conversion (without actually doing it for real).

The sooner (after the freeze) we can do this, the better IMHO. git-dpm looked good at the time, however the more I think about it, the more I think gbp is the superior solution - especially for a team effort. It is very easy to break gbp pq unless you are careful to follow correct procedures. Once a broken repository is pushed (e.g. manual changes to debian/patches/*), it is not easy to fix without liberal use of pushing a rebased repository. Or starting git-dpm from scratch. If there was a conflict with debian patches (fortunately this hasn't happened to me yet), I think it would be very challenging to resolve the conflict with git-dpm (not that gbp pq is going to be great in this situation either, however I think it would be easier to understand what is going on, and hence find a good solution). The concept to convert from git-dpm to gbp pq is very very easy: 1. Delete debian/.git-dpm 2. Unapply all patches. 3. Commit and push. (repeat for all branches on all repositories) Step 2 is easier said then done. I can do it easy enough on my own packages. I think we need a documented process anyone can follow. Plus dealing with errors as required (e.g. if unapplying patches causes conflicts due to non-compliant git-dpm package) - if anything like this happens - hopefully on not many packages, these packages might require manual processing. The obvious way "quilt pop -a" doesn't work, because the quilt .pc directory does not exist, and quilt thinks the patches are already unapplied. I sent an email previously with some (untested) suggestions I had.

When you upload a package, you upload the *.debs and push to git a the same time. With the one dgit command that checks everything is consistant, and tags things appropriately. I not sure of the exact details of how the push is done yet. I think dgit would really help with the problem I occasionally get: Does this git source really correspond with the package that was uploaded. Mistakes can happen in git that can result in you looking at one git version that is very different to what was uploaded. Yes, this does happen. Mostly however, I think the prime benefit of using dgit would be that it helps other non-team members maintain the package - as does happen from time to time in the form on NMUs. We can help these people by sticking to a standard that others can use. It would not directly help DPMT workflow, as that mostly remains as is. Hence my first priority would be to change to GBP PQ for work flow, and then worry about dgit after I have had a chance to play with dgit a bit more. -- Brian May <b...@debian.org>

To implement this with the required checks, it is recommended (but not required) that you use its build operation. Instead of using "dput" or similar, you use "dgit push". This checks the most recent build and makes sure it was built correctly from git HEAD, and then uploads the build to debian *and* the source to git.dgit.debian.org Apart from build and upload there are no other changes to standard git-dpm or gbp pq procedures.

Ok, so there really was a difference: the git archive was missing the "docs/_static/.keep_dir" file that is included in the upstream file.

The .git-dpm file is only shipped with the Debian source package, and AFAIK has no meaning outside git. So it is a useless file for the Debian source package. There should be no impact whatsoever in removing it, and you could even argue that it was a bug to distribute it in the Debian source in the fist place. > That will also give us time to make sure we have a proper migration strategy > and sufficient documentation. That may be a better reason. Hence the reason I suggested not doing a mass migration of all packages at once (at least for now) but to update the package when it otherwise needs updating. -- Brian May <b...@debian.org>

So keeping the RC bug open is still appropriate. I tried updating to the latest upstream version (see git) however now I can't see how to run the tests (the supplied mptt/settings.py file is insufficient). It is not really important enough for me to worry much more. -- Brian May <b...@debian.org>
python-django-mptt
Hello All, Why didn't the upload of python-django-mptt automatically close #828669? Too late now, it was removed from testing and I think it is too late to re-add. I don't think it is important. However I just wondered why this bug didn't get closed. (I thought I also responded to that last email too, but will have to double check this) https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/python-modules/packages/python-django-mptt.git/tree/debian/changelog Regards
Re: [Python-modules-team] Bug#849652: faker: FTBFS on 32-bit: ValueError: timestamp out of range for platform time_t
To: debian-python mailing list Help in fixing this RC bug would be appreciated. I have forwarded this upstream, however need a quick fix for the Debian package (not sure but suspect it might be too late for stretch). Unfortunately, not sure where to start. I don't understand this date_time_this_century() function that appears to be the cause of it.
