Hi, As in Debian, a few packages need SQLAlchemy 2.x, I am working toward adding all SQLA 2.x patches as backport to Bobcat. So far, I managed to backport patches for Heat and Glance, and I'll work on Cinder and Manila next. However, a few packages are failing when using SQLAlchemy 2.x, as per the experimental pseudo-excuse page for sqlalchemy: https://qa.debian.org/excuses.php?experimental=1&package=sqlalchemy So, the list of packages is (in alphabetical order): - cloudkitty - ironic-inspector - masakari - murano - trove - sahara - senlin - vitrage - zaqar These projects need to urgently work toward supporting SQLAlchemy 2.x, both because SQLA 2 will be in distros, and because the OpenStack project requirements needs to move on and bump SQLA to 2.0. Is there anyone working on this? I'm especially interested having Cloudkitty fixed, since we use it in production, but I'm not sure I have the skills for it. Stephen, who wrote the patches for Cinder, Manila, Glance, Heat and Nova at least, doesn't have the time to work on these, he told me on IRC. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
