pysnmp should follow lextudio/pysnmp?

[Richard Laager]

At $DAYJOB, I ended up going down a long rabbit hole starting with python3-pysnmp4 not being updated for the importlib changes in Python 3.11. This was an issue for me on Ubuntu 24.04. It seems to NOT be an issue on sid (for reasons I do not fully understand), even in a fresh chroot, so I'm not filing a Debian bug about it.

So at this point, I'm just writing to point out the PyPI points "pysnmp" to: https://github.com/lextudio/pysnmp

I looked on Salsa:
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/python-pysnmp4/

I see some unreleased changes that reference:
https://github.com/pysnmp/pysnmp

The last change on that project is from a month ago, and it has a fix for this bug. In other words, it appears to be actively maintained. The last change there is from over a year ago, and it does not have a fix for this bug. So, at a glance, it seems like you should follow lextudio/pysnmp like PyPI does. Of course, I've only looked at this for an hour, so you might have more information. I just wanted to mention lextudio/pysnmp (and PyPI referencing it) in case you were not aware.
