[UG] Urlgrabber 3.9.0 - pycurl-tastic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,
A urlgrabber announcement. urlgrabber 3.9.0 is now released. Think of this as a beta-ish release. Most everything is working - but not all the unittests check out and I'm sure I've messed up some other bits. However, it is functional for yum and koji so far and I've tested A LOT of the basic items. Please file bugs (for now) in red hat's bugzilla( http://bugzilla.redhat.com) under python-urlgrabber.

The big change for this release is porting the backend over to using libcurl/pycurl. It took a fair bit of work to preserve the existing urlgrabber api and make things sane/behave with pycurl. However, I believe it is working out. No modifications were made to any program which uses urlgrabber and that sure looks like maintaining the interface is correct and happy.

You can get this release from:
http://urlgrabber.baseurl.org/download/urlgrabber-3.9.0.tar.gz

and I've built  some pkgs for f12/rawhide here:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1570788&name=python-urlgrabber-3.9.0-3.fc12.src.rpm
and
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1570788&name=python-urlgrabber-3.9.0-3.fc12.noarch.rpm


To see the changes you can look in the changelog in the tarball or you can look here:
http://yum.baseurl.org/gitweb?p=urlgrabber.git;a=summary

I'd like to reiterate - this is a bit of a test version so please give it a try, tell me what is broken for any app that uses it and we'll get it put back together. But don't be shocked if not everything works perfectly.

let me know what breaks,
-sv
