Public bug reported: This package has been deprecated seven years ago and is becoming incompatible with other packages. Recently, pyopenssl dropped an API for PKCS#12 which python-oauth2client uses; it's getting more and more difficult to keep the package alive, hence the need to migrate to its replacements.
I've done a number of changes over the past weeks in order to remove this package. Unfortunately, some thing remain, most notably: - pydrive2 extensively uses it, see https://github.com/iterative/PyDrive2/pull/221 for the most recent work on this topic; it's possible that vendoring the library will be required (if it can still be made to work!) There are also in-review changes: - beancount: https://code.launchpad.net/~adrien/ubuntu/+source/beancount/+git/beancount/+merge/469654 - cinder: https://code.launchpad.net/~adrien/ubuntu/+source/cinder/+git/cinder/+merge/470004 - fence-agents: https://code.launchpad.net/~adrien/ubuntu/+source/fence-agents/+git/fence-agents/+merge/469471 ** Affects: python-oauth2client (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Description changed: This package has been deprecated seven years ago and is becoming incompatible with other packages.
