[Python-modules-team] Bug#904648: python3-tweepy: fails to install with Python 3.7

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: python3-tweepy
Version: 3.5.0-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts
Control: block 902788 with -1 

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install. As
per definition of the release team this makes the package too buggy for
a release, thus the severity.

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Setting up python3-tweepy (3.5.0-1) ...
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/tweepy/streaming.py", line 355
      def _start(self, async):
                           ^
  SyntaxError: invalid syntax
  
  dpkg: error processing package python3-tweepy (--configure):
   installed python3-tweepy package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1


"async" has become a reserved keyword in Python 3.7


cheers,

Andreas
