Patch taken from the debian package for python-axolotl-0.1.39.

python-axolotl has been failing since March,
https://hydra.gnu.org/job/gnu/master/python-axolotl-0.1.35.x86_64-linux

This also fixes the OMEMO and OTR plugins for Gajim work.

Thanks for looking into this and sending the patch.

I think this change should be submitted upstream, which is here:

https://github.com/tgalal/python-axolotl

Can you do that? We wouldn't have to wait for a new release of
python-axolotl, but we should wait to hear what the upstream maintainer
thinks.

Pull request sent.

There is also a pull request pending from someone else that updates
pyton-axolotl to use a newer python cryptography library rather than the
deprecated python-pycrypto library.  That would also fix this issue and
is a much better long term fix but also a more intrusive change.

I noticed that as well. Pycrypto is no longer maintained and has an
extremely serious bug that was never fixed in a released version:

https://github.com/dlitz/pycrypto/issues/176

And the author seems to implicitly agree that people should stop using
it:

https://github.com/dlitz/pycrypto/issues/173

So I added a TODO comment to the package, saying that we should remove
it:

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/packages/python-crypto.scm?id=12a130b0118c3f56e6337e011dc4a89f2671359a#n186

So, I recommend being careful how you use any package that depends on
pycrypto.

Great, please ping us when they respond or if they never do :)

Any update on this?  :-)

Haven't heard anything from the maintainer :/.

We could just go ahead and apply my patch anways :).  Or remove the
package from guix entirely.  As it stands the package has been broken
for over a year in guix.

Indeed.  I adjusted the patch and commit log and pushed it as commit
51f887f33d08a805fa62c726c81904ce54a540ac.

Sorry for taking so long!

Thank you,
Ludo’.
