This package has been deprecated and unmaintained upstream for almost a
decade, has required extensive patching to keep working on new Python
versions, will inevitably break again with Python 3.13 dropping 2to3,
is lacking a maintainer in Nixpkgs, is now unused in the tree, and
has caused us all far too many headaches lately. Let’s put an end
to this!
Shout‐outs to mweinelt and jchv for dealing with this situation
early on, pyrox0, Sigmanificient, and dotlambda for tackling a bunch
of packages, and natsukium for help with reviews. I never thought this
would get finished so quickly. We’ve collectively handled almost
1½ packages per day in the three months since I first opened the
tracking issue, and sometimes helped move the entire ecosystem forward.
Closes: #326513
This is marked as broken already because of a Jupyter Notebook upgrade,
and the upstream repository hasn’t been touched in two years,
so there’s little reason to try doing anything about its nose
dependency. Other distributions have already dropped this package;
there’s a patch from an openSUSE maintainer to migrate it off nose,
but they don’t seem to package it any more.
Boto has not seen a release since 2018, and has been officially
marked as deprecated in favour of boto3 and botocore since 2021. It
has required downstream patching to keep it running on newer Python
versions and is broken on the new default of Python 3.12. It also
requires the obsolete nose test framework that we are in the process
of removing.
The few packages we carry that still require boto are in poor upstream
maintenance state and some of those were already broken. The NixOps
AWS plugin was the last holdout that justified keeping this package,
but it is now also broken.
No release in four years and depends on the deprecated and broken
boto package; to quote the README:
> ## Where are the maintainers ?
>
> Qubole was acquired. All the maintainers of this repo have moved
> on. Some of the employees founded ClearFeed. Others are at big data
> teams in Microsoft, Amazon et al.

This commit removes the 2 deprecated modules and creates a throw message for
them to the recommanded package to be used.
