Package: cdist Version: 7.0.0-1 Severity: grave User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu lunar
The cdist package is broken with python 3.11, as detected by the
autopkgtest:
$ cdist
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/cdist", line 93, in <module>
commandline()
File "/usr/bin/cdist", line 53, in commandline
parser, cfg = cdist.argparse.parse_and_configure(sys.argv[1:])
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cdist/argparse.py", line 534, in
parse_and_configure
parser = get_parsers()
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cdist/argparse.py", line 478, in
get_parsers
parser['scan'] = parser['sub'].add_parser(
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "/usr/lib/python3.11/argparse.py", line 1197, in add_parser
raise ArgumentError(self, _('conflicting subparser: %s') % name)
argparse.ArgumentError: argument command: conflicting subparser: scan
$
It looks like this is easily fixable without regression by removing the
first assignment to parser['scan'], but this seems like such an obvious bug
that I don't know if I'm missing something with historical behavior of
argparse handling multiple assignments?
Anyway, this package has no maintainer and upstream has not fixed this, and
there are no reverse-dependencies, so I would suggest the package should
just be removed.
