FYI: I plan to upload sqlalchemy 1.1.6+ds1-1 (i.e. a new upstream release in 1.1.X series). I assume if you will allow 1.1.5, then there's no reason to not allow 1.1.6 - i.e. next bug fix release in 1.1 series.
Note that upstream already started working on 1.2 series which I'm not considering for Stretch - these one gets new features and f.e. drops Python 2.6 (which we don't support since a long time, but still) - my point is: upstream is sane. -- GPG: 1D2F A898 58DA AF62 1786 2DF7 AEF6 F1A2 A745 7645
