EPEL-ANNOUNCE python-werkzeug update

[Ricky Elrod]

It is our (maintainers and co-maintainers of the python-flask package)
goal to get Flask 0.9 in EPEL. As the first step toward this goal, I
have picked up the orphaned python-werkzeug, and we need to update it to
a newer version, compatible with Flask.

I've built (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4239046)
Werkzeug 0.8.3 for EPEL 6, and am about to push it to EPEL 6 testing.

As such, we've obtained approval (as per the incompatible upgrades
policy:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL_incompatible_upgrades_policy) to
proceed with updating Werkzeug.

There are a number of incompatible changes between what's EPEL 6 right
now (Werkzeug 0.6.2) and 0.8.3, and there is a changelog provided by
upstream, available here: http://werkzeug.pocoo.org/docs/changes/

Please test your Werkzeug applications against 0.8.3 and provide
feedback/karma in the Bodhi updates page for it:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python-werkzeug-0.8.3-2.el6

Thank you,
Ricky

Maybe slightly off-topic:

It would be great to see Flask 0.9 in EPEL, but as of today, I do not
see python-flask-0.9 in Fedora (not even in rawhide).  Do you know if
it will it appear there soon too and if it will also be released as
an update for F17?

Looks like hguemar (IRC: number80) is working on that:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=11672

I'd get in touch with him about how far back he's planning on pushing
updates.
