I have had a go at updating python-requests to the latest upstream release (from 2.8.1 to 2.9.1). This bundles the latest version of python-urllib3 (1.13.1) so I have updated that also (from 1.12 to 1.13.1).
1: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/requests 2: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/python-urllib3 When updating python-urllib3, I also added in the DEP8 tests from #796717 [3]. I duplicated the test, and adjusted it for python 3 (as the patch was just python 2 only). 3: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=796717 I am still getting to grips with git-dpm (previously I have just used git buildpackage). So I may have made some mistakes when attempting to update to the latest versions. Its also probably prudent to have the python-requests package depend on the latest version of python-urllib3 (which I have not changed). You can find the updated repositories here [4], [5]. 4: http://git.cbaines.net/python-requests/ 5: http://git.cbaines.net/python-urllib3/ Thanks, Chris
