Can you please branch python-requests for epel7? I can become co-maintainer on the epel7 branch if you need some help.
Package Change Request ====================== Package Name: python-requests New Branches: epel7 Owners: sagarun InitialCC: sagarun
Can you please modify this SCM request and add the el5 branch as well? If you do not wish to maintain it on that branch, then I can file an SCM request and own the el5 branch. python-requests will be a required dependency for the next release of Salt (https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/salt/).
Hey Erik, RHEL 5 comes with python 2.4. I'd like you check the compatibility of python-requests and dependent libraries for python 2.4. I don't think python-requests support python 2.4. Please verify it and let me know.
Ofcourse, i could be wrong, i just want to verify that we have support exists in the package.
Arun, I should have been more clear, I was looking for a build of python-requests that depends on python26 from EPEL.
Git done (by process-git-requests).
Arun, It looks like this will require a branch-and-build for urllib3 in order to build this for EL5, as well.
If you do not wish to maintain it for EL5, I can handle this, because as I mentioned earlier, it is a required dependency for the next feature release of Salt.
CentOS 7 (and presumably RHEL7 as well) comes with python-requests, so having python-requests in EPEL7 is unnecessary.
Looks like it does include python-requests for centos 7. The version there is very old https://git.centos.org/commit/rpms!python-requests/refs!heads!c7 , should i retire this branch?
Yes according to the package list at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/epel7 python-requests is in RHEL7 now, so it should be retired/removed from EPEL7.
Mistakenly (In reply to Dan Callaghan from comment #11) > Yes according to the package list at > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/epel7 python-requests is in RHEL7 now, > so it should be retired/removed from EPEL7. python-requests (epel7) $ pkgdb-cli orphan --retire python-requests epel7 user: sagarun changed point of contact of package: python-requests from: orphan to: orphan on branch: epel7 You are not allowed to retire the package: python-requests on branch epel7. I mistakenly retired the master branch (fedora-devel) is there any procedure to unretire it?
Never mind, i figured it out. The release engineering tickets are #5936 and #5937
Should this ticket be closed?
It looks like it can be. The epel7 branch was orphaned, I adopted it.
(In reply to Erik Johnson from comment #15) > It looks like it can be. The epel7 branch was orphaned, I adopted it. You don't need to adopt epel7 branch. The package is already available from centos/RHEL repository. So We do not need to maintain requests on epel7 branch.
Ahh, so it is. I forgot about those comments. Apologies, I have been working on a LOT of packages lately. :)
Closing this since it seems to be resolved.
