dbus-python-1.3.2

[Bruce Dubbs]

New minor version.

[Xi Ruoyao]

Building the wheel requries ​meson-python.

[Xi Ruoyao]

Replying to Xi Ruoyao:

Building the wheel requries ​meson-python.

It then depends on pyproject-metadata and tomli. Too annoying...

Maybe we should directly install the package with meson, instead of building the wheel.

dbus Python Bindings 1.3.2 (2022-09-06)

Fixes:

• Reinstate PKG-INFO and egg-info in source tarball, so that it can be used as a PyPI sdist

• Fix reStructured Text formatting in NEWS

dbus Python Bindings 1.3.0 (2022-09-06)

Dependencies:

• Python 3, version 3.5 or later, is required. An upstream-supported version (currently 3.7 or later) is strongly recommended, and a future version of dbus-python is likely to require Python 3.7 or later. Python 2 is no longer supported.

• Installing from source code using Meson requires Python 3.5 or later and Meson 0.56.2 or later. This is now the recommended build system.

• Installing from source code using Autotools requires Python 3.5 or later. The Autotools build system is likely to be removed in a future version.

• Installing from PyPI using pip or from source code via setup.py requires Python 3.7 or later, Meson 0.60.3 or later, meson-python 0.8.1 or later, and their dependencies (ninja, patchelf, setuptools, wheel).

API changes:

• dbus.gobject_service, dbus.types.UTF8String and the utf8_strings keyword argument were only usable with Python 2, and therefore have been removed, along with the rest of the special cases for Python 2.

Enhancements:

• Add a Meson build system

• Add methods to Message objects to manipulate the interactive authorization flag

• Add licensing information in REUSE format

Fixes:

• Raise ValueError instead of crashing with assertion failure when a Unix fd index number is greater than the number of fds actually attached to the message

• Raise ValueError instead of crashing with assertion failure when a negative number is passed to the UnixFd constructor

• Fix undefined escape sequences in docstrings

• Make distcheck compatible with Automake 1.16.4, by forcing an appropriate prefix to be used

• Update AX_PYTHON_DEVEL from autoconf-archive for better forwards-compatibility

• Avoid various deprecation warnings in the build system
  • distutils.sysconfig → sysconfig
  • distutils.util → sysconfig
  • AC_PROG_LIBTOOL → LT_INIT
  • AC_HELP_STRING → AS_HELP_STRING

• Fix CI for recent Python and Automake versions

• Update bug reporting URL
