In #298 released with 3.6, this package introduced the
EntryPoints
objects with aSelectableGroups
shim for compatibility with older usages. During the review, asottile, the maintainer of flake8 informed me that flake8 has a slow release cadence and that it would be disruptive to suddenly expose a DeprecationWarning in flake8, especially since some users of flake8 will have-Werror
enabled.In merge request 464 and merge request 472, I made attempts to update flake8 to transition to the new interface. Since both attempts were dismissed rapidly and without guidance on how to proceed and without response to my plea for conversation, I see no option but to press forward with the deprecation.
@asottile Is there anything you'd like to do before the deprecation is introduced for flake8 as it has for other projects?
