Bug#1068502: Dead upstream and broken, remove or switch to a fork?

[Timo Röhling]

Hi,

I have uploaded a patch that fixes the FTBFS bug with flake8 >= 7,
so we have a bit of breathing room for now.

The pytest-flake8 fork has been archived already; the author states [1]:

I am no longer invested into the flake8 as a tool, as I have moved to using ruff.

And I strongly recommend running QC tools as a separate step. Integrating flake8 into the unittest framework looks like a false economy to me nowdays.

 $ build-rdeps python3-pytest-flake8
 Reverse Build-depends in unstable/main:
 ---------------------------------------

 cvise
 pytest-pylint
 python-cssselect2
 python-tinycss2
 rpmlint



Cheers
Timo

I tend to agree and think we should work towards removing this package. There are only five reverse dependencies anyway: Found a total of 5 reverse build-depend(s) for python3-pytest-flake8.
