I tried to update it to 3.5.1 and was proved wrong though: there’s one test failure in ‘tests/asn1object’ and the Internet doesn’t seem to know how to address the problem. So it would need a bit more work. I’d lean towards keeping it and doing that extra work, collectively, but I understand this very discussion shows that it’s debatable. Ludo’.
