Bug#962623: ImportError: cannot import name 'parse_qs' from 'cgi' (/usr/lib/python3.8/cgi.py)
This bug caused the package to not be included in the bullseye release and is now blocking the upgrade of one of my machines. Can we please pull the latest upstream (now 1.1.8) in and get a backport for bullseye?

Dear Maintainer,
please upgrade to 1.1.7 available upstream and replace
debian/patches/settings_debian.patch
with the appended version.
This makes 1.1.7 working in testing(bullseye).
Thanks a lot,
greetings
Hermann

Bug#962623: ImportError: cannot import name 'parse_qs' from 'cgi' (/usr/lib/python3.8/cgi.py)
Hi, I tried building a package off of the following: - the upstream 1.1.6 source at https://github.com/graphite-project/graphite-web/archive/1.1.6.tar.gz - the dsc for 1.1.4-5 - the debian.tar.xz for 1.1.4-5 The CVE patch should be dropped, and there are minor issues with settings_debian.patch. Otherwise, it installs cleanly and works. FWIW, -- Natalia
Bug#962623: ImportError: cannot import name 'parse_qs' from 'cgi' (/usr/lib/python3.8/cgi.py)
Package: graphite-web
Version: 1.1.4-5
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Hi,
When initially setting up graphite-web I ran the following (per
/usr/share/doc/graphite-carbon/README.Debian):
# su -s /bin/bash _graphite -c 'graphite-manage migrate --run-syncdb'
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/graphite/settings.py:334: UserWarning:
SECRET_KEY is set to an unsafe default. This should be set in local_settings.py
for better security
warn('SECRET_KEY is set to an unsafe default. This should be set in
local_settings.py for better security')
Traceback (most recent call last):
(...52 lines of stack trace removed...)
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/graphite/render/urls.py", line 16, in
from . import views
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/graphite/render/views.py", line 23, in
from cgi import parse_qs
ImportError: cannot import name 'parse_qs' from 'cgi'
(/usr/lib/python3.8/cgi.py)
This also happens when connecting to the dashboard via HTTP: I installed
libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3, configured the VirtualHost and when connecting I get a
500 on the browser and a similar stack trace on the error log. I didn't check
it all but the last 2 entries are same as above.
When looking into this I found what seems to be a dependency issue. The release
notes for graphite 1.1.6 [1] state "Python 3.8 and Django 2.x support". That
makes me speculate that graphite 1.1.4 doesn't support python 3.8, and is thus
broken on debian testing/sid.
I believe we'd need graphite-web 1.1.6 on debian.
