[Bug 1835737] Re: SRU: backport Python 3.8 to bionic

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello Matthias, or anyone else affected,

Accepted python3-stdlib-extensions into bionic-proposed. The package
will build now and be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python3-stdlib-
extensions/3.6.9-1~18.04 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.

Bug description:
  SRU: backport Python 3.8 to bionic. This is done to get a wider
  audience for 3.8 testing, helping to prepare the transition of the
  default Python3 to 3.8 in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

  The new packages are not used, so there is no regression potential for
  the new packages.

  Changed packages are the binary packages built from the python3
  -stdlib-extensions source package, where the 3.8 files are added.  No
  change for the files shipped for 3.6 and 3.7.  The only downside is
  that the packages sizes increase by ~50% by adding the files.  However
  these packages are not part of any minimal setup, so this seems to be
  bearable.

  The python3.8-doc package isn't built, because a newer sphinx version
  that the one in bionic is required.
