[Bug 1307733] [NEW] python3-netaddr 0.7.10 with poor python3 support

[Sören Berger]

Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 14.04 (beta2) currently ships with python3-netaddr 0.7.10:

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Release:        14.04

$ apt-cache policy python3-netaddr
python3-netaddr:
  Installed: 0.7.10-1build1
  Candidate: 0.7.10-1build1
  Version table:
 *** 0.7.10-1build1 0
        500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

This release is over 18 months old. In the current release there are a
lot of bugfixes. During my development I got some nasty errors which are
fixed in the current relese 0.7.11. See [1].

Especially the bug about the len() in IPSet makes the library not really
useful in python3.

$ python3
Python 3.4.0 (default, Apr 11 2014, 13:05:11) 
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from netaddr import IPSet
>>> len(IPSet(["192.168.0.0/24"]))
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/netaddr/ip/sets.py", line 518, in __len__
    if size > _sys.maxint:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'maxint'
>>>

This is because in python3 sys.maxint not exists and is replaced by
sys.maxsize

It seems this version was not completely ported to python3. This bug[2]
(and others) are fixed in the current stable version 0.7.11

I would suggest to give this library a version bumb to 0.7.11.

If I can support you somehow, let it me know.
