Package: thuban Version: 1.2.1-1 Severity: important Usertags: python-xml-removal
Since some time a subset of python-xml is included in the standard python library, while the python-xml package did not see any updates for years. It is time to drop it from the distribution. Update scenarios: - Just drop the (build) dependency, if the functionality is included in python. (Build)-depend on python (>= 2.4). - Copy missing code in the std library from the python-xml package. (e.g. for some installer packages: localechoose). - Use another xml library (python-4suite-xml, python-lxml).
