I don't think so.

I would like to document something like this in NEWS.Debian of python-django so that admins are not left in the cold for their own django apps.

Django 1.7 preparations
Hi, I rebuilt all reverse deps of python-django and I tagged confirmed all the associated bugs where the package failed to build with python-django 1.7 and I sent the relevant extract of the build log... It makes a total of 31 bugs that will need some attention: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=python-dja...@packages.debian.org;tag=django17 And 42 more that need manual evaluation of the situation. There's a good proportion of failures that look trivial (missing django.setup() call) but there might be more problems once this one is fixed... As usual your help is welcome.

Waiting to see if upstream will respond before uploading a patched version to Debian. https://github.com/celery/django-celery/issues/336 djangorestframework - I am interested in this package, however don't actually use it. The maintainer doesn't appear to be responsive to bug reports, although still need to wait a bit longer before coming to a true verdict on this. Would like to see this being maintained by the Debian Python Modules Team. django-filter - Somehow I completely missed the fact this bug was reopened (#755635). Think this is a broken test only. Submitted upstream as https://github.com/alex/django-filter/issues/157. Hope I haven't missed other bugs :-). -- Brian May
