Public bug reported:

I'd like to ask for a feature freeze exception for an upload of the new python-foolscap version 0.6.1.
An update of the package is required due to the recent twisted 10.2 upload (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/twisted/10.1.0-2)
which is not completely compatible with foolscap (details in bug 724837).

The difference between the new version and the packaged version are mainly bugfixes and only few new features (changelog attached).
There was one api change in 0.6.0 but that has begun in 0.5.0, the packaged version is 0.5.1 so dependent packages should have migrated by now.
I checked ipython and it is migrated. But I am still waiting for a reply from tahoe-lafs maintainers.

So I see no real blockers for the new version but alternatively I could
also only backport the fix for twisted 10.2 to the existing version.


Please decide on which route to take at this stage of development.

What's the tahoe-lafs question? I've been sponsoring uploads for it
for the guy who's now taking care of it.

the tahoe package is up to date with upstream so I see no problems when
upgrading foolscap.

But as I do not use that package myself I cannot verify this myself and
have wrote to the maintainer to be sure.

An upgrade to foolscap should be fine for tahoe-lafs 1.8.2.

Ack. FFe approved. Please either do the minimal packaging change in
Ubuntu or more generally update the package in Debian and get it sync'ed
into Ubuntu after upload to Debian. We don't want to create a
divergence from Debian in the packaging.

Sponsor's ack for syncing 0.6.1-1. There isn't an Ubuntu diff that
needs maintaining.
