#11762 — Should python-cloudpickle get a py2keep tag?

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

Hi,

The py2removal bug says to discuss the py2keep tag first.

src:cloudpickle is a dependency of src:spyder and src:skimage.

python-skimage has a popcon inst score of 469
spyder has a popcon inst score of 1385
spyder3 has a popcon inst score of 1069

The removal bug says the popcon threshold for py2keep is >= 300. So add
it?

you are asking about the least preferred option, without telling why you can't 
convert to python3, or why you can't remove the affected packages.  If you have 
both spyder and spyder3 (Python3?), then why not drop spyder?  I didn't look at 
skimage, but maybe look there first if it needs to be Python2.

I was assuming that py2keep was a temporary flag that would be removed
after the leaf packages get fixed.

Since spyder and skimage are under the science team I wasn't sure how
long it would take for them to get around to removing the python2
packages.

Both spyder and skimage packages have python3 versions. spyder does
install into /usr/bin/spider so it's removal will have a bigger impact
on end users than something that's just a python package.

I did upload a new version of cloudpickle last night 1.2.1-1 with
Python2 removed, I'm trying to figure out if I should let the
dependencies just live with the previous python-cloudpickle 0.8.0
package or if I should upload a new version of 1.2.1 with the python2
packaging built.
