Quoting Sascha Peilicke <saschpe@gmx.de>:
Hi guys,
if someone wants to work on updating Python packages, here's a list of packages in devel:languages:python for which PyPI tells a different version (including some false positives). The script doesn't expand RPM macros for Version: (which we don't like anyway), so where 'None' is listed, a fix is welcomed too ;-)
A short and quick hint (as doubtless a 'bunch' of people will now start working on those). Inslall osc-plugin-collab ! It makes, as the name suggests, COLLABorating easy here. examples: osc collab todo --project devel:languages:python => This lists pretty much the same as the mail from Sascha included (mostly). then you can use osc collab update --proect devel:languages:python <the_pkg_I_want_to_update> ==> collab will branch it, check the sources out, try to download the tarball and prepare some magic for you (trying to identify NEWS files, extracting the diff from previous ones and such). But how does it help the COLLAB part? That's the best of all! collab contains a package reservation system. As soon as you trigger osc collab update, the package is 'reserved' for 36 hours. (collab todo lists those with (r)). Another user trying to 'collab up' will get an info that the package is reserved by another user. Et voila! No more 'several users' updating the same package...
