Release Author: Henrik Levkowetz
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.
