--- Comment #26 from Jamie Lennox <jlennox@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
I'm sorry that this bug has sat idle so long, particularly as it's starting to
acquire blocks.

I've decided to submit this for review without checks. There are simply too
many problems i've found in the test cases upstream that cause transient
failures. For the sake of a few: 
 * A lot of interdependent state between tests, different test runners and
versions can therefore fail. 
 * Certain tests only work on the version upstream is pinning there testing to. 
 * Time based tests that fail if the test started and finished over a second
boundary. 
 * Some further undiscovered interactions that would make tests fail about 1 in
4 

I've tried putting some of this upstream in the past. For example I had fixes
up to unpin all the requirements to get the latest dependencies testing and so
it wasn't shipping version specific dependencies in PyPi. This was accepted
after debate, only to have been quiety repinned later. 

Ideally i'd like for this to mean we don't package it at all, however there are
now a number of dependencies and the library works in practice. 

SPEC: http://people.fedoraproject.org/~jamielennox/python-httpretty.spec
SRPM:
https://people.fedoraproject.org/~jamielennox/python-httpretty-0.8.3-1.fc20.src.rpm

Hopefully i've sufficiently justified my position and we can get this packaged.
