Hi,

I get some deprecation warnings from svnmerge at every checkin:

----8<----

===> Uploaded mono-addins-0.4-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz ===> Commited with "upgpkg: mono-addins 0.4-1" message /usr/bin/svnmerge:71: DeprecationWarning: The popen2 module is deprecated. Use the subprocess module. import sys, os, getopt, re, types, tempfile, time, popen2, locale

----8<----

Does anybody knows more about it?

It is a warning about svnmerge using a method that will no longer be available in python3. It is to help developers transition their code from python2 to python3 and is nothing to worry about. If we don't want to wait on upstream, fixing this is fairly simple (we had the same issue in namcap). Allan
