#2098 closed defect (fixed)

remove dependency on zbase32 and pyutil

Reported by: daira Owned by: zooko
Priority: normal Milestone: undecided
Component: packaging Version: 1.10.0
Keywords: packaging pyutil zbase32 review Cc:
Launchpad Bug:

Description

These are weak dependencies in the sense that Tahoe-LAFS will work without them, but they have confused users and packagers (e.g. see ​http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=683331), and are potential sources of packaging bugs.

(This ticket conflicts with #47.)

FYI: I just noticed that newest zbase32 and pyutil are now mutually dependent on each other.

In order to make the toolchain builder happy, I'm first installing zbase32 1.1.3, then pyutil 1.9.7, then upgrade zbase32 to 1.3.5.

This isn't hurting anything over here -- just thought you might want to know.

Zooko: these dependencies are only via zfec, correct?

Hmm, ​https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/zfec gives an "Environment not found" error.

Note that I have reintroduced the dependency on pyutil as part of Python 3 port: there is enough duplicate code in pyutil that it's easier and nicer to just use the versions in pyutil. And since pyutil is indirect dependency anyway it wasn't adding any new dependencies.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
