requests uses system python-urllib3 to follow Policy 4.13. The advantage of this is that fixing the system lib all the package depending on it will get the fix. I already fixed in python-urllib3 1.9.1-3. I already asked for an upload (I'm not yet a DD or DM) but you can build the updated package taking the code from SVN: svn://anonscm.debian.org/python-modules/packages/python-urllib3/trunk/ So, not using an embedded copy we have only to fix this once. :) -- Daniele Tricoli 'Eriol' http://mornie.org _______________________________________________ Python-modules-team mailing list Python-modules-team@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/python-modules-team
