Hi folks, I package a backup tool called "bup", recent versions of which embed a copy of the tornado library (a git commit somewhere between 0.2, in testing, and 1.0.1, in unstable). I am exploring the possibility of a freeze exception for a more recent version of bup than currently in the archive. Ideally, I would excise the embedded copy of tornado and depend on python-tornado. Unfortunately, bup will not work as-is with python-tornado version 0.2 currently in testing. It seems fine with 1.0.1 in sid. Therefore, if I upload a newer bup and get a freeze exception, I can only depend on python-tornado if 1.0.1 also gets a freeze exception: otherwise, I will have to carry the embedded copy, which will be newer than the package! Are you folks considering a freeze exception request for python-tornado? Many thanks, -- Jon Dowland please copy replies to me.
