[rdo-users] requests requires chardet >= 3.0.2, < 3.1.0

Not sure if this should go to -users or -dev (or somewhere else)... RDO (Rocky) ships with python2-requests-2.19.1-3.el7.noarch.rpm and python2-chardet-3.0.4-7.el7.noarch.rpm. The requests code has a hard-coded check for: # Check chardet for compatibility. major, minor, patch = chardet_version.split('.')[:3] major, minor, patch = int(major), int(minor), int(patch) # chardet >= 3.0.2, < 3.1.0 assert major == 3 assert minor < 1 assert patch >= 2 Unfortunately this requirement is not reflected in the python2-requests RPM, which just "requires" "python-chardet" (without any specific version). If the EL7-bundled version of python-chardet is already installed, and one installs python2-requests from the RDO repo, either directly or via dependency, python2-chardet does NOT get updated, which results in warnings like: # python -c 'import requests' /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/__init__.py:91: RequestsDependencyWarning: urllib3 (1.21.1) or chardet (2.2.1) doesn't match a supported version! RequestsDependencyWarning) # I think that the python2-requests PRM needs an explicit "requires" for the specific version of python[2]-chardet. Anyone disagree? What's the right way to file a bug on this? TIA, ~iain
