Description Vasily Zakharov 2015-03-27 17:49:30 UTC
urlgrabber 3.9.1 contained a bug that sometimes was causing the following exception in pycurl on both Ubuntu and Windows, maybe more:

pycurl.error: (43, 'CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST no longer supports 1 as value!')

The problem is well described here:
https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/35874/yum-pycurl-error-43/

The simple fix was changing
self.curl_obj.setopt(pycurl.SSL_VERIFYHOST, opts.ssl_verify_host)
to
self.curl_obj.setopt(pycurl.SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2.0)

Happily, this problem was successfuly addressed in urlgrabber 3.10, and that's good.

However, there are two problems with futher using this fix, particularly on Windows:

1. urlgrabber 3.10 is not available in pip: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/urlgrabber/

2. urlgrabber 3.10 cannot be built from sources on Windows due to unavailability of fcntl module:

C:\urlgrabber> python setup.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 17, in <module>
    import urlgrabber as _urlgrabber
  File "E:\VimeoRPG\urlgrabber\urlgrabber\_
    from grabber import urlgrab, urlopen, u
  File "E:\VimeoRPG\urlgrabber\urlgrabber\g
    import socket, select, fcntl
ImportError: No module named fcntl

Could you please fix either of these things, as urlgrabber is a highly usable and effective package, on Windows too. Thanks!

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 23 development cycle.
Changing version to '23'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 23 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 23 End Of Life. Thank you.)

More information and reason for this action is here:

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2016-11-24 11:37:57 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '23'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 3 Vasily Zakharov 2016-11-24 13:04:18 UTC
The problem unfortunately persists, moving to version 25.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2017-12-12 10:09:56 UTC
Fedora 25 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-12-12. Fedora 25 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
