I confirm that the dependency on keepalive should not be so strict. A quick lookup in the upstream VCS showed that it is only used in one method of the SPARQLWrapper class and its absence only raises a warning. @maintainers Please incorporate Hilko's patch to prevent transitive dependencies on keepalive from leading to FTBFS in packages depending on rdflib. Thanks. @Hilko Do you intend to package keepalive? Your first message somewhat hinted this. Cheers, Ghis
