Bug Description

[Availability]
Currently in universe

[Rationale]
Dependency for Openstack Liberty release.

[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

[Standards Compliance]
FHS and Debian Policy compliant.

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

[Background]
python-pymysql is a pure-Python MySQL client library. The goal of PyMySQL is to be a drop-in replacement for MySQLdb and work on CPython, PyPy, IronPython and Jython.

If I understand correctly, if python-pymysql is going to be promoted to main, I think we'll need to work on demoting python-mysqldb to universe and take care of any reverse dependencies (using python-pymysql as a replacement).

The milestone we're currently working on updating to switches most of the core openstack projects onto this dependency as well.

This is blocking OpenStack Liberty. Can someone take a look please?

https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/PyMySQL_evaluation has rationale behind the move for OpenStack and some evaluation of the code itself.

I was hesitant to swap out python mysql libraries, but there aren't that many rdepends for the old one and the link above gives some good reasons to switch (old one is poorly maintained and unlikely to support python3).

So OK. But:

- python-pymysql is ftbfs right now (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=796010)
- Needs a team bug subscriber

Besides that, it looks fine.

python-taskflow - 1.17.0-1ubuntu1
python-tornado - 4.2.1-1ubuntu1
sqlalchemy - 1.0.8+ds1-1ubuntu2

python-pymysql tests have been fixed up and it now builds successfully. It's been uploaded and it now has a team bug subscriber.

Please let me know if we need to do anything else to get python-pymysql into main. Thanks!

The last comment should say *python-taskflow doesn't require a patch
