Both lists should replace python-ldap with ldap3. The former is abandon-ware and will never (probably) be upgraded. The latter already works great with python 3

Both lists should replace python-ldap with ldap3. The former is abandon-ware and will never (probably) be upgraded. The latter already works great with python 3 (and is a better library all-around).
- rspeer 12y agoThere are more packages like that, in fact: * Python-MySQL is abandoned, but it's been superseded by python-mysql-connector. * oauth2 is kind of superseded by oauthlib. * pathtools can probably be replaced with Python 3's pathlib. * ipaddr can be replaced with iptools, which has the additional advantage that you can contribute to it without approval from Google's lawyers.
- neokya 12y agoWe know about that. Many of the packages are overriden if there are drop-in replacements like PIL -> Pillow. In above list, these are not drop-in replacements and it will require lots of changes in your application code if you want to use them. One idea is to show alternative packages https://github.com/chhantyal/py3readiness/issues/9 https://github.com/chhantyal/py3readiness/issues/9
