Hi Wieland,

with the recent switch to HTTPS by default [0] I'm wondering if it still
makes sense to keep httplib2 (the upstream version, not the one
maintained at [1]) as a dependency in setup.py?

Yes, you are completely right. It makes much more sense to refer to our version instead.

 

I did try adding depency links as described by [2]:

  dependency_links=[
      'git+https://git.wikimedia.org/git/pywikibot/externals/httplib2.git#egg=httplib2-0.8.0'
  ],

I realised today there was a simpler solution than getting setuptools/pip to understand git: git.wikimedia.org has a .tar.gz download option. As such, I have submitted

 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/83370

which suggests https://git.wikimedia.org/zip/?r=pywikibot/externals/httplib2.git&format=gz as download link.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention!
