There is a problem with the lib pyliblo, the source code of the lib is here= : https://github.com/dsacre/pyliblo The problem is that the lib is now incompatible with python3.11 because it uses inspect.getargspec function which does not exist anymore. This is very easy to fix, the main problem is that the author Dominic Sacr=C3=A9 does no= t answer anymore to any message (PR, issues, email), so there is no hope he will fix the problem. I am ready to maintain this lib myself, I could simply fork it and rename the lib to pass it to pip list, but all programs using it will have to rename the lib in their requirements. Is there a sort of protocol to do when this happens, in order to replace the source package with a new version ? thanks for your help Mathieu --00000000000039ead805f040c9aa Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr"><div>Hi.</div><div><br></div><div>There is a problem with = the lib pyliblo, the source code of the lib is here:</div><div><a href=3D"h= ttps://github.com/dsacre/pyliblo">https://github.com/dsacre/pyliblo</a></di= v><div><br></div><div>The problem is that the lib is now incompatible with = python3.11 because it uses inspect.getargspec function which does not exist= anymore.
