Title:
[MIR] jeepney
Status in jeepney package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
[Availability]
Available in Ubuntu Focal.
[Rationale]
python-secretstorage, which is in main because it's a dependency of python-keyring, has been using dbus-python for a long time. However, as dbus-python's README says, it “might not be the best D-Bus binding for you to use”:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus-python/blob/dbus-python-1.2.16/README#L13
Also, the Freedesktop wiki lists dbus-python among “Obsolete libraries”:
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/DBusBindings/#obsoletelibraries
So the new release of secretstorage is now using jeepney, a
lightweight pure Python D-Bus implementation instead of dbus-python
(which was written in C).
[Security]
