[MIR] python-pyperclip, xclip

[Steve Langasek]

[MIR] python-pyperclip

[Availability]
Currently in universe.

[Rationale]
python-pyperclip is needed as a new dependency of cmd2, which is part of the openstack dependency chain (via python-cliff).

[Security]
No security history.

[Quality Assurance]
Package works out of the box with no prompting. There are no major bugs in Ubuntu and there are no major bugs in Debian. Unit tests are run during build.

[Dependencies]
All are in main except xclip (see below).

[Standards Compliance]
FHS and Debian Policy compliant.

[Maintenance]
Simple python package that the OpenStack Team will take care of.

[Background]
A cross-platform clipboard module for Python.

[MIR] xclip

[Availability]
Currently in universe.

[Rationale]
pyperclip depends on xclip.

[Security]

[Maintenance]
Package that the OpenStack Team will take care of.

[Background]
xclip is a command line utility that is designed to run on any system with an
X11 implementation. It provides an interface to X selections ("the clipboard")
from the command line. It can read data from standard in or a file and place it
in an X selection for pasting into other X applications. xclip can also print
an X selection to standard out, which can then be redirected to a file or
another program.

ubuntu-openstack is now subscribed to all bugs about python-pyperclip.

[James Page (james-page)]

xclip seems pretty un-maintained in Debian.

[James Page (james-page)]

xsel looks like a better choice in terms of general maintenance in Debian.

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

please decide on xclip or xsel. it's an alternative dependency, so you can change it

[James Page (james-page)]

As this is an indirect dependency, lets stick with xclip rather than delta against Debian.
