[Python-modules-team] Bug#930781: python3-socks: Deprecation warning emitted on import

[Jamie Bliss]

Package: python3-socks
Version: 1.6.8+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

PySocks 1.6.8 has a deprecated import and a warning is emitted on import. This
is triggered by importing requests, an extremely common HTTP library. It has
been fixed in upstream 1.7.0

This happens for any software that uses requests, whether or not they depend on
PySocks. It just happens for every application that uses it as soon as
python3-socks is installed on a system.

In addition, this warning becomes user-visible if the application surfaces
warnings in some way (in a log or on stdout).
