It is now present in unstable. However the buildd status seems bad.
ppc64el due to segfault during python2 test.
kfreebsd-* had never compiled protobuf since 3.x.x release.
armel,armhf,hppa,i386,mips,mipsel,powerpc,x32 failed during python3 test due to the same reason:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/«PKGBUILDDIR»/python3/google/protobuf/internal/reflection_test.py", line 639, in testIntegerTypes
TestGetAndDeserialize('optional_uint32', 1 << 31, long)
NameError: name 'long' is not defined
There is no "long" type in python3, so this is an upstream
py2 -> py3 porting bug. See:
https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/1504
I looked into protobuf's code at master branch and it seems to be solved:
https://github.com/google/protobuf/blob/master/python/google/protobuf/internal/reflection_test.py#L658-L659
https://github.com/google/protobuf/blob/master/python/google/protobuf/internal/reflection_test.py#L642-L645
Should we consider to cherry-pick the corresponding upstream commit to
Debian's protobuf 3.0.0 package or, to import protobuf 3.1.0
(maybe impossible due to transition freeze) ?
