Subject: cfv: Python2 removal in sid/bullseye

Date: Fri, 30 Aug 2019 07:13:06 +0000

Package: src:cfv
Version: 1.18.3-2.1
Severity: normal
Tags: sid bullseye
User: debian-python@lists.debian.org
Usertags: py2removal

Python2 becomes end-of-live upstream, and Debian aims to remove
Python2 from the distribution, as discussed in
https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2019/07/msg00080.html

Your package either build-depends, depends on Python2, or uses Python2
in the autopkg tests.  Please stop using Python2, and fix this issue
by one of the following actions.

- Convert your Package to Python3. This is the preferred option.  In
  case you are providing a Python module foo, please consider dropping
  the python-foo package, and only build a python3-foo package.  Please
  don't drop Python2 modules, which still have reverse dependencies,
  just document them.
  
  This is the preferred option.

- If the package is dead upstream, cannot be converted or maintained
  in Debian, it should be removed from the distribution.  If the
  package still has reverse dependencies, raise the severity to
  "serious" and document the reverse dependencies with the BTS affects
  command.  If the package has no reverse dependencies, confirm that
  the package can be removed, reassign this issue to ftp.debian.org,
  make sure that the bug priority is set to normal and retitle the
  issue to "RM: PKG -- removal triggered by the Python2 removal".

- If the package has still many users (popcon >= 300), or is needed to
  build another package which cannot be removed, document that by
  adding the "py2keep" user tag (not replacing the py2remove tag),
  using the debian-python@lists.debian.org user.  Also any
  dependencies on an unversioned python package (python, python-dev)
  must not be used, same with the python shebang.  These have to be
  replaced by python2/python2.7 dependencies and shebang.

  This is the least preferred option.

If the conversion or removal needs action on another package first,
please document the blocking by using the BTS affects command, like

  affects <bug number of blocking py2removal bug> + src:cfv

If there is no py2removal bug for that reverse-dependency, please file
a bug on this package (similar to this bug report).

If there are questions, please refer to the wiki page for the removal:
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/2Removal, or ask for help on IRC
#debian-python, or the debian-python@lists.debian.org mailing list.

Upstream progress of Python3 port:
https://github.com/cfv-project/cfv/issues/8

Btw, it seems development of original cfv has stalled, see
https://sourceforge.net/p/cfv/bugs/19/ but there is active fork and
2.0 release since 2019:

New upstream plans to be included into Debian:

Hi Stefan,
given your comment at
https://github.com/cfv-project/cfv/issues/8#issuecomment-615215686, let's
proceed with removal?

Cheers,
        Moritz

Yes, I don't see any progress on the py3 port since May (and I cannot 
commit myself to implement py3 support) so I just sent the removal request.

Thanks for the reminder.

Closing since cfv is being removed due to python2 dependency.

please dont close bugs for packages that are still in the archive. the
RM process takes care of closing them when the package is actually
removed

Sorry, it's my first RM - didn't know this.

And, reading 
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html and 
more carefully, it actually says "Once the package has been removed, the 
package's bugs should be handled." (and tagging them with +rm which I 
didn't).

Mea culpa.
