[Python-modules-team] Bug#904649: python3-txfixtures: fails to install with Python 3.7

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: python3-txfixtures
Version: 0.2.6-1
Severity: serious
Tags: sid buster
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-txfixtures (0.2.6-1) ...
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/txfixtures/_twisted/testing.py", line 22
      self.async = False
               ^
  SyntaxError: invalid syntax
  
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/txfixtures/tests/test_reactor.py", line 113
      self.reactor.async = True
                       ^
  SyntaxError: invalid syntax
  
  dpkg: error processing package python3-txfixtures (--configure):
   installed python3-txfixtures package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   python3-txfixtures


"async" has become a reserved keyword in Python 3.7


cheers,

Andreas
