Public bug reported: [originally posted to psycopg ML: http://www.postgresql.org/message- id/ca+mi_8aau8n3czr-ejfxzj2y6jaxfdcm-vkzjyiwcm0fmm4...@mail.gmail.com]
I've just noticed that the next Ubuntu LTS release will ship with psycopg rel. 2.4.6, which was the last release in the 2.4 branch. http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/trusty/psycopg2 In the 2.5 branch, together with a few new features, there have been several bugs fixed. I've tried backporting these changes to 2.4 and have found no major problem ("git cherrypick" rocks). I'm wondering if releasing a 2.4.7 including these bugfixes, together with the upcoming 2.5.3, would see this package included in the LTS (maybe not at release time, which I think is imminent, but in a following update). Has anybody an answer or is more in contact with Ubuntu release managers to forward them the question? As a reference, this is the list of fixed issues that would be included in 2.4.7, if this release would make a sense. Changed code is in <https://github.com/dvarrazzo/psycopg/tree/maint_2_4>, not pushed to the official repos yet. - Work around `pip issue #1630 <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/1630>`__ making installation via ``pip -e git+url`` impossible (:ticket:`#18`). - It is now possible to call `get_transaction_status()` on closed connections. - Properly cleanup memory of broken connections (ticket #142). - Fixed build on Solaris 10 and 11 where the round() function is already declared (:ticket:`#146`). - Fixed bad interaction of setup.py with other dependencies in Distribute project on Python 3 (ticket #153). - Meaningful connection errors report a meaningful message, thanks to Alexey Borzenkov (:ticket:`#173`). - Manually creating `lobject` with the wrong parameter doesn't segfault (:ticket:`#187`). - Fixed unsafe access to object names causing assertion failures in Python 3 debug builds (:ticket:`#188`). - Avoid blocking async connections on connect (:ticket:`#194`). Thanks to Adam Petrovich for the bug report and diagnosis. - Fixed handling of dsn and closed attributes in connection subclasses failing to connect (from :ticket:`#192` discussion). - Don't segfault using poorly defined cursor subclasses which forgot to call the superclass init (:ticket:`#195`). - Mark the connection closed when a Socket connection is broken, as it happens for TCP connections instead (:ticket:`#196`). - Fixed overflow opening a lobject with an oid not fitting in a signed int (:ticket:`#203`). - Mark the connection closed if found broken on `poll()`. - Fixed possible segfault in named cursors creation. - Fixed debug build on Windows, thanks to James Emerton. ** Affects: psycopg2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1304138 Title: Backport 2.5 bugfixes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/psycopg2/+bug/1304138/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
