Hi,

Neutron projects are tested in Bobcat with sqlalchemy 2 (actually with the main branch), so I would not expect big issues (🤞) (bagpipe was the last project with serious failures and it is green in the last week)

My understanding was that Openstackwise we bump sqlalchemy with starting Caracal, see:

https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/requirements/+/879743

BUT: based on some discussions ie:

https://meetings.opendev.org/irclogs/%23openstack-nova/%23openstack-nova.2023-09-12.log.html#t2023-09-12T16:37:08

I have doubts that it will happen.

Hi,

As you may know, and to my great frustration, I'm not the maintainer of
SQLAlchemy in Debian, even though OpenStack is the biggest consumer of
it. The current maintainer insists that he wants to upload SQLA 2.x in
Unstable, potentially breaking all of OpenStack.

At the present moment, if I understand correctly, we're not there yet,
and Bobcat doesn't have such a support. It would be ok for me, *IF*
there are patches available on master, that I could backport to Bobcat
and maintain in the debian/patches folder of each project. However, the
biggest current annoyance, is that I have no idea where we are at. Are
we close to such a support? Is there a list of patches to apply on top
of Bobcat that is maintained somewhere?

Please enlighten me... :)

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
