[Bug 1348954] Re: update Python3 for trusty

[Martin Pitt]

There has been a python3-defaults upload in the trusty queue for about a
year, but there is no corresponding task nor description why a -defaults
update is necessary. If this is still relevant, please update the bug
and reupload.

Title:

Status in python3-defaults package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in python3-stdlib-extensions source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released
Status in python3.4 source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  update Python3 for trusty.

  Rationale: the LTS was released with 3.4.0, the first 3.4 release
  which certainly had some issues. The idea is to update the python3.4
  packages to the version found in 15.04 (vivid), which currently
  doesn't have any outstanding issues.  A test rebuild of the trusty
  main component was done without showing any regressions during the
  package builds.

  To validate this SRU, I'm proposing to use the results from the test
  rebuild, plus evaluating the testsuite results of the python3.4
  package itself.

  To test the python3 behaviour for certificate verification, use
  urllib.request.urlopen. requests does it's own certificate
  verification.

  import urllib.request
  sites = [
      'https://expired.badssl.com/',
      'https://wrong.host.badssl.com/',
      'https://self-signed.badssl.com/'
  ]

  for site in sites:
      try:
          urllib.request.urlopen(site)
          print("OK", site)
      except:
          print("FAIL", site)

  Edit /etc/python3.4/cert-verification.conf to test both behaviours
