Hi. I'm contacting you as maintainers of reverse dependencies of python-rdflib. Maybe some python folks (CC-ed) will be interested too if RDF echoes somehow to their ears ;-)
I'm basing this email on my system's testing telling me : $ apt-rdepends -r python-rdflib Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done python-rdflib Reverse Depends: buxon (0.0.5-4) Reverse Depends: python-feedvalidator (0~svn1022-2) Reverse Depends: python-sparqlwrapper (1.4.1-2) Reverse Depends: swaml (0.1.1-2) buxon python-feedvalidator python-sparqlwrapper Reverse Depends: swaml (0.1.1-2) swaml I've been working on updating the Debian package of the Python RDFLib [0] in recent weeks, improving the work initiated by Christian M. Amsüss (see ITA #702300). I've just uploaded an updated package to experimental (pending review in the NEW queue [2]). RDFLib 2.4.2 in Debian was really old and buggy for modern RDF applications, so I hope the situation will be much better with a much more recent version appearing in Debian (4.0.1-1), but I expect quite some impact on your packages which still depend on the old version (enjoy reading [3]). I even think this may have a consequence on the presence of some of your packages in Debian, which may become obsolete if they can't run with a recent RDFLib :-/ Note that for python-sparqlwrapper, I've already tested a bit the transition, as both packages are depending on each-other (and the appearance of python3-rdflib will make python3-feedparser's transition to testing happy ;) I hope the python-rdflib / python3-rdflib packages will appear soon in experimental, but in the meantime, they could be tested from rebuilding from the package sources (see [1]). Feel free to report and/or ask for more details. Of course more help in improving RDFLib's packaging would be great, and I'm sure Christian won't object, as the goal has been to try and do team maintenance (even if the Git / SVN issue re. DPMT made it to appear in collab-maint for the moment).
