Please unblock package sqlalchemy 1.1 - it was in unstable for a very
long time and was my plan to ship it in Strech since the first beta
release of 1.1.0. Upstream author provides best unit test coverage I've
seen in an Open Source project and cares about stability and
compatibility a lot (+ provides very detailed migration guides).
A lot of packages needed an update for 1.1 but it was mostly a rebuild & check
(I was generating << X.Y+1 dependency for each package that depended on
X.Y release before 1.1 one), this work was done long before freeze.
It was supposed to be done even sooner, but I kept it in experimental
for over a month due to miscommunication with another developer.
I've missed few packages (and was busy with RL) so it didn't propagate
to testing on time. Packages that blocked the migration are: ceilometer,
murano, ceilometer and mistral - see below.
ceilometer and murano NMUs have just a requirements.txt tiny patch to
drop << 1.1 dependency. requirements.txt is used in Python world for
recommended env. (in contrast to setup.py's requires.txt which is
supposed to list minimum required dependencies) - unfortunately
OpenStack upstream decided to not bother with it and just copy
requirements.txt into requires.txt - a lot of OS packages were patched
for this reason (thanks to OS team!), unfortunately I've missed two.
mistral 3.0.0-2 was uploaded on 24 Oct 2016 with sqlalchemy >= 1.1
dependency so it didn't migrate to testing due to missing SA 1.1
All other python-sqlalchemy and python3-sqlalchemy rev. dependencies are
already in testing because, as I mentioned before, sqlalchemy no longer
generates (via dh_python{2,3}) <<X.Y dependency by default so they
migrated even though SA 1.1 isn't in testing.
Thanks in advance and sorry for not taking care of it more carefully
before the freeze.
