<html>Hi everyone (Yth, David, Duncan),<br /><br />It seems like we (Yth and Duncan) have come to a consensus - we do not need python 3 support for python-m2r.<br /><br />David, can you please remove python3 build support from the python-m2r package?<br /><br />- Isaac<br /><br />On Friday, January 27, 2023 10:04 PST, Duncan Roe <duncan_roe@optusnet.com.au> wrote:<br /> <blockquote type="cite" cite="Y9QSFreeF5sRFJqd@slk15.local.net">Hi Guys,<br /><br />On Fri, Jan 27, 2023 at 10:38:36AM +0100, Arnaud wrote:<br />> ><br />> > Hi Duncan,<br />> ><br />> > I suggest simply removing python 3 support from python-m2r instead.<br />> > In that case, we do not need to update python2-mistune.<br />> ><br />> > If we really need python 3 support for python-m2r, I would suggest splitting<br />> > python-m2r into 2 packages: python2-m2r (v0.2.1), which depends on<br />> > python2-mistune (v0.8.4) python3-m2r (v0.3.1), which depends on<br />> > python3-mistune1 (v0.8.4) ??????<br />> > As I mentioned, python3-mistune1 is meant to be an older version of<br />> > python3-mistune (at v2.0.4).<br />> ><br />> > ???????????????After all, it was Yth's original intention to split mistune into<br />> > python2-mistune and python3-mistune.<br />> ><br />> > - Isaac<br />><br />> I think it's the best thing to do.<br />> m2r is only used by Automat, and has been removed as requirement, because it's<br />> optional, and only used for generating better documentations.<br />><br />> It is very possible that Automat uses the /usr/bin/m2r command, and not any<br />> Python import, so having the python2 version of m2r wouldn't prevent<br />> python3-automat for using it.<br />><br />> Since m2r looks very unmaintained, and should still work while being python2<br />> only, it looks safe to remove the python3 support for it.<br />><br />> As for mistune, the python2 version, stuck at 0.8.4, is only used by python-m2r,<br />> so all this stays pretty legacy, and we have nice updated stuff on python3.<br />><br />> My advice is that we don't need a python3-m2r or a python3-mistune1.<br />><br />> Cheers,<br />><br />> - Yth.<br />><br />Whatever you decide to do is fine with me - I was just trying to update all my<br />pre-15 builds.<br /><br />Cheers ...
