[Python-modules-team] Bug#771349: python-requests: can't import function from requests.packages.urllib3.filepost

[Félix Sipma]

Package: python-requests
Version: 2.4.3-5
Severity: important

I've seen that you recently patched several times python-requests to use
the global python-urllib3. I found a new issue with it (sorry :-)), the
resulting urllib3 package don't behave the same as the original one:

    $ python
    >>> from urllib3.filepost import iter_field_objects
    >>> iter_field_objects
    <function iter_field_objects at 0x7f82cfbf0848>
    >>> from requests.packages.urllib3.filepost import iter_field_objects
    >>> Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
      ImportError: cannot import name iter_field_objects
    >>>
