[Bug 2052437] Re: python-boto: obsolete, replaced by python-boto3

[Alberto Contreras]

For the simplestreams target, it was discussed and agreed by paelzer,
paride and aciba that it does not require an FFE because:

> In general a change like this would require an FFe, unless it is the
only viable way to fix a (sufficiently high importance) bug. In this
case the bug is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-
boto/+bug/2052437 and in my opinion that it is important enough, and
switching to boto3 is the only sensible way to fix it

Bug description:
  As per:
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1058652

  Python-boto has long ago been superseded upstream by python-boto3, which has
  been in Debian for several releases.  Python-boto is not maintained upstream
  and is not being ported to modern python versions.

  On behalf of the cloud team, please remove python-boto from unstable testing
  (assuming the latter doesn't happen automatically following removal from
  unstable).
