Re: 2Removal: handling circular dependencies

Show all headers | View raw

[Summary of previous messages: I noted that packages with circular 
dependencies can't be removed one at a time without breakage.  Replies 
were to remove multiple packages at once if necessary, but ask first if 
other maintainers' packages are involved.]

I have now checked what cycles we have:

- 13 small sets (one of 13, others 2-4 each): small enough that "remove 
the whole set at once" is manageable.

- One big tangle (159 packages).  This probably needs breaking up:
--- Some of it involves documentation tools (e.g. sphinx).  These cycles 
can be broken by using the Python 3 version of the tool.
--- Some of it is "A Suggests (or Recommends) A-extension, A-extension 
Depends on A" cycles (e.g. pandas<->statsmodels).  If A-extension is 
otherwise ready to remove but A is not, these can be broken by removing 
the Suggests from A.  (Assuming we're still using "broken Suggests are 
not allowed": this has previously been discussed, I forget where.)
