One of the things discussed at the DebConf 15 Python Bof was python-support.
Following on from the MBF on packages still using python-support, some of us at DebConf, have held some mini-BSPs to team-upload/NMU affected packages. You can see & join the progress here: http://whiteboard.debian.net/python-support-removal.wb Current content below. Please pick a few packages, and work through them. If we all do a few, we should be able to get them done. We've uploaded about 100 packages, there are still 200 odd open bugs. SR Dump from our whiteboard: > Bugs: > https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=pysupport-deprecation;users=debian-python@lists.debian.org > Instructions: https://wiki.debian.org/Python/TransitionToDHPython2 > > take a bug, mention it here (so that nobody else works on it the same time), > dput --delayed 2 > > - make necessary changes (don't fix other issues), add a changelog entry > - build the package > - run lintian, only check pysupport tags and tags like > source-nmu-has-incorrect-version-number > - get the previous version (e.g. apt install -d), run debdiff for both .deb > - install the package, test it (by importing/running at least) > - nmudiff --delay 2, read the attached diff (instead of running debdiff > manually with two .dsc), send > - dput --delayed 2 > > If lowNMU then just upload but still send nmudiff --nodelay. If > team-maintained then commit and upload (if a team member). If collab-maint - > ??? (still a NMU). > > cdbs pro-tip: just drop "DEB_PYTHON_SYSTEM = pysupport" in debian/rules, cdbs > defaults to dh_python2.
