This bugfix release contains a number of fixes for issues with the big
Python 3 conversion release, many of which has already been patched in
production. Additionally, there are some fixes related to new slide upload
functionality and the test suite. From the commit log:

  • Fixed some issues with the Py2/3 changes to the populate_yang_model_dirs
    management command.

  • Added a check for submitter found before trying to get submitter name and
    email when generating email notification address lists.

  • Shortened generated document titles a tad, to avoid line wrapping in
    the IESG agenda package (which sometimes breaks the relevant tests).

  • Merged in [16515] from rjsparks@nostrum.com:
    Save files correctly when updates to an existing set of slides are
    proposed. Fixes #2748.

  • Added information about versions (Datatracker, Python, and Django) at
    the beginning of test suite runs, to be able to clearly see which Python
    and Django versions were used during a test run.

  • Replaced six.ensure_str with django's force_str, in order to be able
    to use earlier versions of six which more frequently are available on
    the development and production target platforms.

  • Changed PDF page-counting code to read PDF files as binary.

  • Replaced the email-sending logger.error() on bad Submission.submitter
    email address with syslog logging.

  • Added an email gather handler for submission_submitter that tries an Alias
    name lookuup if the submitter doesn't look as if it contains an email
    address. This deals better with submission records that only has a name
    in the submitter field.

  • Changed import path for settings_local.py to work with absolute_import
    under Py2, and also under Py3.

  • Changed agenda file reading to read files as binary when looking for
    draft names listed in the agenda, in order to avoid issues with
    older uploads using latin-1 or other encodings where the lower
    127 character match ASCII.
