Re: jessie backport of python-debianbts?
Hi Paul,
this is gonna be a bit tricky as python-debianbts now depends on
python-pysimplesoap that is not in Debian/Stable (it is in testing
though). Luckily the fix you are talking about took place before the
migration to pysimplesoap, so theoretically it should be possible to
maintain a separate branch for backports.
The last commit that contains the fix but not the pysimplesoap stuff is
4269f9b715a7fa8b163e4cef613810e087cff321
I'd be very happy if someone else could do the backporting and uploading
as I'm really swamped with work right now and don't want to deal with
actively maintaining the backport too.
There is also another open issue with current Stable users which should
benefit from the fix without having to use backports. Maybe it's better
to fix this bug in stable so you would benefit from the fix without me
having to actively maintain the backport?
Cheers,
Bastian
