-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all,
python-dateutil is old[0]. Fedora is carrying version 1.5, and upstream is up to 2.3 . If you're receiving this mail directly, you are a maintainer of a package that depends on python-dateutil, and we need your help. There are some changes that might cause breakage for you if the package was updated. Luckily, there is a python-dateutil15 package that could continue to provide the same code. The maintainer of python-dateutil15 has agreed to carry the one patch that makes it different from python-dateutil. After this update to python-dateutil15, maintainers of dependent packages[1] can simply submit an update with the new requires for business as usual. python-dateutil can then be updated to the current version, and packages needing *that* can move forward. I intend to file a bug against python-dateutil15 for the patch, a tracking bug that's blocked by tickets filed against individual affected packages and dependent on the python-dateutil15 change, and the tracking bug will block the cited python-dateutil ticket. It should be relatively easy to see when each step is complete, and a relatively painless change for the maintainers involved. Please reply here with any concerns about this process that might not have occurred to me.
