#9937 — pyasn1

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Hello,

pyasn1 is currently at version 0.1.9. The current version is
0.3.7. There is a bug report asking for a new version:

 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=872724

Should a transition be opened for such a packet (this is not usual to
have transition for Python packages, but there are many reverse
dependencies to this one)?

Jan, do you plan an upload soon? Otherwise, can I do an upload?

Is the new version likely to break dependencies? If so, a transition
might be good.

Might be worth creating a test version for experimental and rebuilding
all dependancies against it to see if any fail. Although I think I may
have just described a transition anyway :-).

Changelog says:

Iterator protocol support implemented for all container types. Warning,
warning, warning: this change may potentially affect backward
compatibility when:

 - user class overrides __getitem__() without overriding __iter__()

 - when user code iterates over SEQUENCE object to get its components
   (now keys will be yielded)

No other mention of breaking compatibility. I would say, it shouldn't.
