When you say "requires" python3, you're saying that boto now works only
with python3? I've probably missed some context if so, can you provide any
links to clarify why that's happened?
I mean, the package pulls it in. I haven't investigated the details.
Oooh. Hmmmmm maybe this is just a problem which will go away if
python-boto is pulled in _explicitly_ -- I see that python3-boto is
actually a subpackage. Let me look into that more.
We (the heat community) are happy to help drive resolution of this,
it's
just something of an unexpected issue tbh :(
Yeah. We need to get "dependency explosion detection" into our nightly
checks so we know immediately.
I appreciate the frustration, but it feels a bit like heat-cfntools
is the
messenger here, with boto being the real problem?
Probably :). Or possibly the real problem is "implicit depsolving
chosing the wrong thing".
Let us know how you'd like to proceed and we'll try to get it
sorted for
the change deadline.
Thanks Steve!
