python-websocket-client is a dupe of and conflicts with python-websocket

[Robie Basak]

[Archive Admin]

Please remove src:python-websocket-client (and then NBS binary python-websocket-client) from the archive.

[Other Stuff]

<jamespage> rbasak, trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/websocket.py', which is also in package python-websocket-client 0.11.0-0ubuntu1

python-websocket-client is an Ubuntu only package which is out of date now. python-websocket is packaged in Debian, and is up to date.

python-jujuclient is the only reverse dependency of python-websocket-client.

This should not be duplicated.

src:python-websocket-client needs to be removed from the archive, and python-jujuclient should depend on python-websocket instead.

[Robie Basak (racb)]

James points out that we need a Breaks/Replaces to make sure the old package gets removed correctly, so adding a task for that, too.

12:24 <hazmat> rbasak, should be fine.. i'll double check re changes
12:24 <hazmat> rbasak, yup that's fine.. i use that version already

[...]

12:32 <jamespage> rbasak, I can confirm that python-jujuclient appears functional with python-websocket

[Robie Basak (racb)]

To clarify this in my own head, the tasks are:

1. src:python-jujuclient: fix depends (with pydist-override?)

2. src:websocket-client: Ubuntu delta for python-websocket binary to break/replace the old binary from src:python-websocket-client (binary python-websocket-client)

3. src:python-websocket-client: remove
