I installed the script that was missing instead, added manpages for a couple 
binaries -- these fix a few warnings.
For the rest,
And added override for 3 binaries whose manpages do not render well at all, and 
these would need manual intervention to the automation w/ help2man
and I've got no motivation to manually fix these and maintain it for each 
release.

Charles has answered this already :)

Thanks for the review! I'll stem ahead with an upload then, after 14th

Last month I exchanged emails with Martin (the upstream developer) about
this and he answered me that he made sure that his scripts were
compatible with both Python 2 and 3.  So the only effect of applying the
patch upstream would be to to drop compatibility with Python 2.

The reason he keeps support for Python 2 is that it is still the default
on Mac OS and on some shared workstations used by scientists.  I think
we can wait that Apple wakes up and the old workstations shut down.

Have a nice day,

Charles

I added a missing DEP3 header so far.  I'm not sure whether we should do
something against missing manpages (seems there were some new binaries)
and whether we should simply remove the empty manpage.  But that's
cosmetics.

May be it makes sense to propagate the 2to3 patch upstream (but I'm
to lazy to do this, sorry).

Otherwise it looks sensible to me.

Kind regards

  Andreas.

RFR: last-align

2021-08-05 Thread Nilesh Patra
Hi,

Note: This is for *after* release

last-align saw some major overhauls in the later versions post 1179,
which had me almost fully re-write the patches and do more than trivial
changes to rest of the files

It'd be great if someone could review them and give an ACK. I do not
want to keep the review after release - since I'd just want to keep on
upoading the pile post that

The changes I'd want to be reviewed are after 
f4a65161a6ca8c11ec000a31bb5aaa78f230a0d3
all changes are in salsa
