The difference is quite obvious *build*-dependencies are needed just to
build package while runtime dependencies are needed only to run
particular program.
Most common scenario is building documentation or running tests which
usually requires dependencies not really needed once it's done.
But thanks a lot for clarification which packages are needed for which
stuff.
Anyway. We're blocked by lack of charset-normalizer in Debian.
The good news is that it was already uploaded:
https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/python-charset-normalizer_2.0.6-1.html
The bad news is that NEW queue is quite overloaded and it's hard to
estimate when it will hit archive.
https://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html

Hey Bartosz,
Thanks for having a look.
They are all runtime dependencies.
- charset-normalizer is a new requirement since HTTPie 2.6.0, always needed as you saw it.
- defusedxml is needed when treating XML responses. The import error would be encountered only at that time.
- requests-toolbelt is always required, but the missing charset-normalizer error is simply shadowing its requirement.
Trice are build and runtime dependencies (I guess, I am not sure about the difference: without them, HTTPie will not work properly, or not work at all).

So one more thing which is most probably blocker for now.
Does new httpie depend on python-charset-normalizer? I mean for runtime.

from charset_normalizer import from_bytes
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'charset_normalizer'
If that's the case then this package is not yet available in Debian. It sits in NEW queue[1][2].
Also I was able to build package without python3-defusedxml, python3-socks and python3-requests-toolbelt.
Are these really build dependencies? Or maybe they are also runtime dependencies but I didn't hit issues with them since charset normalizer is being called prior to them?

Package: httpie
Severity: normal
Hello dear maintainers,
I've just released HTTPie 2.6.0, it brings interesting changes and bug fixes:
- Added support for formatting & coloring of JSON bodies preceded by non-JSON
data (e.g., an XXSI prefix).
- Added charset auto-detection when Content-Type doesn't include it.
- Added --response-charset to allow overriding the response encoding for
terminal display purposes.
- Added --response-mime to allow overriding the response mime type for coloring
and formatting for the terminal.
- Added the ability to silence warnings through using -q or --quiet twice (e.g.
-qq).
- Added installed plugin list to --debug output.
- Fixed duplicate keys preservation in JSON data.
I guess the bug report about upgrading HTTPie 2.5.0 should be closed then
(#993937)?
Thanks in advance.
Note: I changed the severity from wishlist to normal as HTTPie is obsolete on
every Debian-derived distributions (mostly because it is too on Debian itself).
I kindly hope to improve the situation, maybe is there another way to make the
process smoother, and painless, for everyone?
