Hi,
I'm trying to package httpretty [0] for Python 2 and 3. However, the
latest upstream release 0.7.0 seems to not work with Python 3 (at
least the tests are failing). Version 0.6.5 however works fine (or
at least way better) with Python 3.
What should I do now?
1) Create separate packages python-httpretty (0.7.0) and
python3-httpretty (0.6.5)
2) Create one package with both (0.6.5)
3) Do not package httpretty for Python 3 at all
I need this package working with Python 3 and I only package Python
2 version as well because it's appropriate :) So 3) is not really
good for me and if I choose 1) I might not package Python 2 version
at all.
What does guidelines say about packaging latest upstream release? I
somehow remeber that being checked in the review, but I cannot find
it in the guidelines.
Is it OK to package older release when the new one is broken? Do I
need FPC approval/exception for that?
I'd say it's common sense not to package the latest version if it's
broken, so I'd go for option 2 in your case and updated to the latest
when it's fixed.
Is there an upstream bug open for the failing tests?
Regards,
Dominik
