Hi Christos, when inspecting rdepends of python-avro I stumbled upon your package python-confluent-kafka. I checked whether the Python2 package has any further rdepends which does not seem to be the case. Thus we should probably drop it from Debian. While doing so I upgraded the Git repository[1] to the latest upstream version (please inspect the changes I did with a routine-upgrade script which makes the packaging more conform to policy).
I'm now stumbling upon In file included from confluent_kafka/src/confluent_kafka.c:17: confluent_kafka/src/confluent_kafka.h:55:2: error: #error "confluent-kafka-python requires librdkafka v1.0.0 or later. Install the latest version of librdkafka from the Confluent repositories, see http://docs.confluent.io/current/installation.html" #error "confluent-kafka-python requires librdkafka v1.0.0 or later. Install the latest version of librdkafka from the Confluent repositories, see http://docs.confluent.io/current/installation.html" Since you are maintaining librdkafka as well I wonder what might be your plan to upgrade this library to its latest version. Kind regards Andreas. [1] https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/modules/python-confluent-kafka -- http://fam-tille.de
