Description : Python bindings for Linux AIO API
Hello!
Because apt-mirror [1] project is long time unmaintained [2], having many [3].
issues unresolved I started apt-mirror2 [4] project as a drop-in replacement.
for the apt-mirror.
apt-mirror2 is pure Python/asyncio implementation without `subprocess` calls so.
it have some required dependencies which are missing from Debian:
- aiofile
- caio (this is dependency of aiofile)
- aiolimiter
This issue is for caio dependency.
apt-mirror2 can work with aiofiles instead of aiofile/caio, but I believe
aiofile is better asyncio file API because it uses native AIO under Linux while
aiofiles is threaded Python file API wrapper.
For now I packaged [5] caio as part of the apt-mirror2 project providing
source and debian packages in the apt-mirror2 Packagecloud repository [6].
I will be glad to maintain this package along with apt-mirror2 and all of it's
dependencies.
