Sounds like switching to the fork is a good idea.

Hi Luiz,

Sorry, I've got no knowledge of / interest in pysnmp at the moment.
(I only did a drive-by upload of pyasn1-modules yesterday because I was
looking at RFC3161 and that was missing in the version in sid.)

Cheers,
Julien

python3-pysnmp4 forked upstream

[Luiz Amaral]

Hello Python Team,

It looks like the current upstream[1] of pysnmp has been unmaintained
for a while and got forked [2].

FreeBSD has done some adjustments to pysnmp and the related packages
because of that [3][4], as the current version seems broken in Python 3.9.

What is your opinion on updating these packages to use the forked upstream?

I cced Julien specifically because I saw he was working on pyasn1
yesterday.

Thank you,
Luiz.
