Description Garrett Holmstrom 2015-04-10 20:27:14 UTC

Description of problem:
RHEL 7 currently ships version 1.3.0 of python-six, which is significantly older than the version EPEL 5 and 6 ship, which is 1.7.3.  This puts me in a somewhat awkward position when it comes to unbundling it in EPEL because I need to use one set of patches for Fedora/RHEL 5/RHEL 6 and a different set of patches in RHEL 7.  The RHOS people also have to ship a newer version of python-six as well due to its age.

Would you please update the version in mainline RHEL?  That would make things less awkward for a number of people.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
python-six-1.3.0-4.el7

It is also required for newer version of ansible, who need python-six > 1.4

Comment 4 M. Scherer 2015-04-19 03:31:49 UTC

by newer, I mean "newer not released yet", ie the v2 of the engine use six to run python 2 and 3. 1.9 is fine, and I do not think ansible v2 is going to be out before a few months anyway.
