Public bug reported: [MIR] python3-charset-normalizer
[Availability] - The package src:python-charset-normalizer is already in Ubuntu universe. - The package src:python-charset-normalizer builds for the architectures it is designed to work on. - It currently builds and works for architectures: amd64, arm64, armhf, s390x, ppc64el, riscv64 - Link to package: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-charset-normalizer [Rationale] - The package python3-charset-normalizer is required in Ubuntu main for packages python3-requests and python3-debian. - The package python3-charset-normalizer is a new runtime dependency of package python3-requests and python3-debian that we already support - The package python3-charset-normalizer will not generally be useful for a large part of our user base, but is important/helpful still because the upstream projects for src:python-requests and src:python-debian have migrated their charset detection dependency from src:python-chardet to src:python-charset-normalizer. - Package src:python-charset-normalizer covers the same use case as src:python-chardet, but the former is known to provide better performance and provides more functionality. See [Background] for details. - The binary packages python3-charset-normalizer needs to be in main to achieve parity with upstream and/or Debian: => Ubuntu's src:python3-requests has a patch to replace python3-charset-normalizer by python3-chardet https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/requests/tree/debian/patches/0002-Fix-tests-with-HTTP-proxy.patch => src:python3-debian moves python3-charset-normalizer from Depends/Recommends to Suggests - All other binary packages built by src:python-charset-normalizer should remain in universe => the only other package is python-charset-normalizer-doc which python3-charset-normalizer "Suggests" - It would be great and useful to community/processes to have the package python3-charset-normalizer in Ubuntu main, but there is no definitive deadline. [Security] - No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past => This came up in a Google search, but I don't see how sqlparse relates to charset-normalzier https://security.snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-SLES154-PYTHON311CHARSETNORMALIZER-7981546 - no `suid` or `sgid` binaries - no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin` - Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs - Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024) - Package does not expose any external endpoints - Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software - From a security standpoint, this does not need any of the isolation/risk-mitigation approaches - Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software (filters, scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...) [Quality assurance - function/usage] - The package works well right after install [Quality assurance - maintenance] - The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu/Upstream and does not have too many, long-term & critical, open bugs - Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-charset-normalizer/+bug - 1 low impact bug report - Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=python-charset-normalizer - 1 normal severity open bug-report which is relevant to cross-compilation (on Debian only?) - Upstream's bug tracker https://github.com/jawah/charset_normalizer/issues - No long-pending issues. - The package has no important open bugs relevant to Ubuntu - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support [Quality assurance - testing] - The package runs a test suite on build time, if it fails it makes the build fail Link to a build log: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/791480417/buildlog_ubuntu-questing-amd64.python-charset-normalizer_3.4.2-1_BUILDING.txt.gz - The package runs an autopkgtest, and is currently passing on amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el and s390x Link to test log: https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/results/autopkgtest-questing/questing/amd64/p/python-charset-normalizer/20250630_220548_cf11c@/log.gz - The package does have not failing autopkgtests right now [Quality assurance - packaging] - debian/watch is present and works - debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field - This package does not yield massive lintian Warnings, Errors - Link to a build log: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/791480417/buildlog_ubuntu-questing-amd64.python-charset-normalizer_3.4.2-1_BUILDING.txt.gz - Output of `lintian --pedantic` a following comment - This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages. - This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies [UI standards] - Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation) [Dependencies] - No further depends or recommends dependencies that are not yet in main => checked with the check-mir tool [Standards compliance] - This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy [Maintenance/Owner] - The owning team will be the Debcrafters team, and I have their acknowledgment for that commitment - The owning team is not yet subscribed, but will subscribe to the package before promotion - This does not use static builds - This does not use vendored code - This package is not rust based - The package has been built within the last 3 months in the archive - Build link on launchpad: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-charset-normalizer/3.4.2-1 [Background information] - The Package description explains the package well - Upstream Name is charset-normalizer - Link to upstream project: https://github.com/jawah/charset_normalizer - The charset-normalizer package is a functionally better, and better performing, alternative to chardet. - Details of the comparison are here: https://pypi.org/project/charset-normalizer/ ** Affects: python-charset-normalizer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2115861 Title: [MIR] python3-charset-normalizer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-charset-normalizer/+bug/2115861/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
