Hi all,
Suds [1], a Python Library for using SOAP web services (Fedora package:
python-suds), has been unmaintained for about 3 years or so. There is a
relatively active fork, suds-jurko [2], that has, among other things,
Python 3 support. Thus, I would like to package suds-jurko for Fedora.
Would it be better to:
A) Package suds-jurko as a new package (and then dependent packages could
move over to use suds-jurko at their leisure). If this is the recommended
approach, is there a recommended mechanism for having multiple python
modules with the same name? Rename the fork's module to 'suds-jurko' and
packages that wanted to use the fork would have to be updated to import
the alternative module name?
or
B) Replace python-suds with the jurko fork and force all dependent
packages to move over at the same time. If this is the recommended
approach, is this big enough to qualify as a system-wide change? There
are about a dozen dependent packages, according to repoquery.
Thanks,
Scott
