Changelog
update-manager (1:0.160) quantal; urgency=low
[ Colin Watson ]
* Use Python 3-style print functions.
* Use "except Exception as e" syntax rather than the old-style "except
Exception, e".
* Fix a few assorted pyflakes warnings.
* Use string methods rather than functions from the string module.
* Replace most uses of filter and map with list comprehensions or for
loops.
* Use open() rather than file().
* Use Python 3 renaming of ConfigParser if available.
* Use "raise Exception(value)" syntax rather than the old-style "raise
Exception, value".
* Remove duplicate imports of os.path; 'import os' is enough.
* Use Python 3 renamings of urllib, urllib2, and urlparse if available.
* Remove all hard tabs from Python code. Python 3 no longer tolerates
mixing tabs and spaces for indentation.
* Use Python 3 renaming of httplib if available.
* Use email.utils.parsedate (with a DST handling correction) rather than
the long-deprecated rfc822.parsedate.
* Use the threading module instead of thread (renamed to _thread in Python
3).
* Tell Python to use absolute imports by default, and annotate cases where
we need relative imports.
* Update test_proxy to use gsettings and the python-apt 0.8 API.
* Use new-style octal literals.
* Drop use of deprecated statvfs module.
* Use Python 3 renamings of BaseHTTPServer and SocketServer if available.
* Modernise use of unittest methods.
* Use python-apt 0.8 API spellings of apt_pkg.config methods.
* Fix several ResourceWarnings with Python 3.
* Port to python-apt 0.8 progress classes.
* Since python-gnupginterface is not likely to be ported to Python 3, and
since it's almost just as easy to call gpg directly via subprocess, do
so.
* Use gettext if ugettext does not exist (as in Python 3).
* Ignore __pycache__ directories, and exclude them from dist-upgrader
tarballs.
* Fix up module path when running AutoUpgradeTester/auto-install-tester.py
from the build tree.
* Add a DistUpgrade -> . symlink in DistUpgrade/, to make it possible to
have compatible imports both in update-manager proper and in
dist-upgrader tarballs.
* Use only absolute imports in AutoUpgradeTester/auto-install-tester.py
and DistUpgrade/dist-upgrade.py; these have no __package__ and so cannot
use relative imports.
* Open subprocesses with universal_newlines=True when expecting to read
text from them. On Python 2, this only enables \r\n conversion and the
like, but on Python 3 this also causes subprocess-related file objects
to read str rather than bytes.
* Use "key in dict" rather than "dict.has_key(key)".
* Pass globals() to __import__ so that relative imports work.
