[PRQ#48286] Merge Request for tea4cups-svn
MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge tea4cups-svn [2] into tea4cups- py3-git [3]: tea4cups-svn is based on Python2 and is long discontinued. Upstream website and source-hosting Subversion repo seems to be offline (unable to connect). Also, its mandatory dependency, python2-urllib3 has been broken for the past year or so, and is not getting properly maintained. Therefore I propose to merge the legacy '-svn' pkg to that of the Python3 based continuation fork: tea4cups-py3-git [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/tea4cups-svn/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/tea4cups-py3-git/
Request #48286 has been Rejected by yan12125 [1]: I'm not sure if tea4cups-py3-git is a good merge target, as its repo sees no activity since the fork in 2020 [1]. I suggest to keep tea4cups-svn until there is a consensus. Also, the upstream website and SVN server are back. Regarding the Python 2 issue: there are some alternative ways to solve it, like borrowing patches from Debian [2].
