I just sent a new patch made against the latest master. > This package has bundled dependencies -- dnspython and miniboa -- under > "third_party/". They have been modified as described in > third_party/dnspython/changelog.txt and > third_party/miniboa-r42/CHANGES.txt respectively. Should I unbundle > these dependencies? If so, how do I handle the fact that the bundled > dependencies have been locally modified? I have raised the issue of unbundling with upstream. But, there has been no response after 10 days. https://github.com/wummel/linkchecker/issues/729 I recommend we don't unbundle anything on our own, and let upstream do their homework. WDYT? =
