I think this one package is at minimal threat, but at the distro-level; depending on old libraries (some unmaintained) is a risk, there are stil 300 packages needing six. Some things could break in half expected ways ... again. We had this dependency chain before: pytest -> requests -> urllib3(v1) -> six. So any package with a build-depends on pytest would get six for free in it's build chroot. After the Urllib3 upgrade to v2 the FTBFS bugs came in waves; some were solved only lately. The whole same thing might happen when the python3-dateutil is upgraded. I think it's better to be proactive than react during the freeze. > > that could be easily patched out.
