[Python-modules-team] Bug#779035: Trying to help

[Julien Puydt]

Hi,

I've had a look at the current package, to see what needs to be changed 
for version 4.1.0. I've looked at the various debian/patches/ to see how 
things stand :
certs-path.patch -- the code changed for certifi
domain-test.patch -- still current
ignore-ca-certificates.patch -- the code changed for certifi
ignoreuserwarning.patch -- still current
skip-timing-tests.patch -- still current
sockopt.patch -- needs a refresh

I look at what that certifi module is about: it just looks like it makes 
the path to the ca-certificates available from python... which is 
useless on debian, since we know where they are! So perhaps that's 
something we should just patch away.
