Removed imghdr in the Python standard library, packaging standard-imghdr

Show all headers | View raw

Hi,

Kathara and I started while DC in Busan to figure out which packages 
need to get an update or new introduced into Debian so we would be able 
to package the recent version of NetBox.

https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/blob/v4.0.7/requirements.txt
ITP: https://bugs.debian.org/1017079

Mainly it's about strawberry* packages which is currently not in Debian 
available. And of course all reverse deps.

We detected as a new required package sphinx-toolbox, which requires 
sphinx-jinja2-compat. This depends on (python-)standard-imghdr, which, 
as it turns out, is a possible replacement for a Python dead batterie 
according to https://wiki.debian.org/Python/Dead%20Batteries.

Is anyone already working or has intended to package python-standard-imghdr?
If not which source/binary name should be used? Have we some common 
naming pattern for these additional packages?

For now I assume

python-standard-imghdr
python3-standard-imghdr

as on PyPi the module is named standard-imghdr.

https://pypi.org/project/standard-imghdr/

Regards
Carsten
