launchpadlib not compatible with latest version of httplib2

Fixed in lazr.restfulclient 0.14.1.

Out of curiosity where can I see the CI results on master branch of lazr.restfulclient? Thanks.

I'm afraid we don't have proper CI set up yet - I just run tox by hand. (It's particularly awkward because the test suite uses stuff like lazr.restful that hasn't been ported to Python 3 yet.)

Would it be too much to question why not moving this to gihub so we could use travis and pull requests? It would make testing and contributing much easier (and less human "demanding").

I am asking this because I am trying to add support for py3 on elastic-recheck via https://review.openstack.org/#/c/616578/ which is currentl blocked by a long dependency chain:

elastic-recheck -> launchpadlib -> httplib2 -> lazr.restfulclient

None of mentioned dependencies have a github/travis presense which means that is very hard to make contributons to them.

PS. I am not a big fun of github/PRs as i preffer gerrit/CRs but I realise that is much easier to setup CI for github.

My personal view is that hosting a critical Launchpad-specific component not on Launchpad is just too silly.

What exactly is blocking you in terms of launchpadlib/lazr.restfulclient? The failure logs I could find from your link didn't seem to have much to do with launchpadlib, but I may be missing something.

Is true, few minutes ago I managed to make it work under py36/py37 so I no longer need any other change.

I can see your concern about external to LP, while it can sort some problem it could create many more. Maybe switching from bzr to git in linger run would be a nice step, as i see it as supported https://help.launchpad.net/Code/Git#Converting_from_Bazaar_to_Git

And thanks for helping with that!

Please could the fix be baackported to bionic? It stops backportpackage from working:

```
backportpackage lazr.restfulclient -u ppa:christopher-hoskin/ppa -b

```

@christopher-hoskin: bionic has httplib2 0.9.2, so doesn't suffer from this problem. Do you perhaps have a newer version of httplib2 installed, maybe via pip or something? Try this to find out where it might live:

  $ python
  >>> import httplib2
  >>> httplib2.__file__
