[Python-modules-team] Bug#903443: ImportError: No module named 'botocore.history'

[Jayen Ashar]

Package: awscli
Version: 1.15.15-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

I am running debian stable, but installed awscli from sid (I wanted a newer 
version).

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Effective: installing python3-botocore 1.10.15+repack-1 from testing.

Ineffective: staying on python3-botocore 1.4.70-1 from stable.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

python3-botocore 1.4.70-1 gives the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/aws", line 19, in <module>
    import awscli.clidriver
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/awscli/clidriver.py", line 24, in <module>
    from botocore.history import get_global_history_recorder
ImportError: No module named 'botocore.history'


   * What outcome did you expect instead?

installing awscli 1.15.15-1 would install python3-botocore 1.10.15+repack-1
