This removal has been problematic for a lot of software including the listed
EPEL dependencies and anything those depend on. I propose the following be done:
- Temporarily un-retire Django14 in EPEL6, and allow a planned sunset after
some period of time. It would not receive updates during this time since
upstream Django deprecated it already.
- Add python-django[0] from EPEL7 (python-django-1.6.11-5.el7) to EPEL6 in a
way that has allows some time overlap with Django14 being also available.
During that time other packages can switch to using python-django gracefully.
This should be feasible because Django 1.6 is the last Django Y release which
will run on Python 2.6 making it feasible to run on EL6.
Other ideas or suggestions are welcome.
