[Bug 1855133] Re: SRU: update python2.7 to the 2.7.17 release

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello Matthias, or anyone else affected,

Accepted python2.7 into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python2.7/2.7.17-1~18.04 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: python2.7 (Ubuntu Bionic)
       Status: New => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed-bionic

** Changed in: python-stdlib-extensions (Ubuntu Bionic)
       Status: New => Fix Committed

Bug description:
  This is a proposal to backport the Python 2.7.17 release to bionic.

   - python2.7
   - python-stdlib-extensions
   - python-defaults is not required, but could be used to
     trigger autopkg tests in the -proposed pocket.

  The package builds are prepared in
  https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages

  [Impact]
  Provide an upstream release for Python 2.7.

  [Regression Potential]
  There is regression potential, however with a test rebuild of the main portion of the archive no regressions were found.

  [Test Case]
  No regressions in the Python test suite, and no regressions in the test
  rebuild of the main component of the archive (all architectures)

  As a test, an archive rebuild for main was performed, and no
  regressions were found with this new package. The archive rebuild also
  contained updated versions of gcc-7, gcc-8, python-stdlib-extensions
  and python2.7. The GCC and Python packages should not infer with each
  other.

  [Validation]
  Analyze the build logs for regressions.
  The OpenStack packaging team is checking OpenStack against the built packages in -proposed.

  Summary of the test rebuilds:
  https://people.canonical.com/~doko/ftbfs-report/test-rebuild-20191107-bionic-bionic.html
  https://people.canonical.com/~doko/ftbfs-report/test-rebuild-20191107-bionic-gcc7-bionic.html

  The first one is a reference build, the second one the test rebuild
  with the updated components.

  There are no additional regressions except for one Python test, which sometimes hangs on the buildds, sometimes passes (test_ttk_guionly). Will
  be disabled in a follow-up upload.
