Package: painintheapt
Version: 0.20220226-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Running painintheapt on trixie (or bookworm-backports) fails with the
following error:

# painintheapt -t
Using slower stringprep, consider using cargo to build the faster version in rust.
'JabberBot' object has no attribute 'process'

Upon investigation, the JabberBot object is a slixmpp.ClientXMPP from
the python3-slixmpp package.

Within the source package for slixmpp, the following documentation is
found in docs/howto/remove_process.rst:

Starting from slixmpp 1.8.0, running ``process()`` on an XMLStream/ClientXMPP/ComponentXMPP instance is deprecated, and
starting from 1.9.0, it will be removed.

At the end of this document are a few examples of how to migrate the
code. I'll give them a try a hopefully submit a patch.

Control: tags -1 + patch

Attached patch gets the command working again (verified XMPP messages
are received), however it outputs some noise. Maybe it needs a task
queue with a sleep.

Another patch fixing the aforementioned warnings. My guess is that
slixmpp has a task queue of filters, activated due to painintheapt's
enablement of pubsub and other XEP's.

Tested on both bookworm-backports and trixie.

Description: Drain event loop
The slixmpp library has removed 'process' method since 1.9.0.
This is a second patch which drains the event loop in clean up warning
messages.

Dear Gerald,

many thanks for your patches!
I'll try to get the fix into trixie.

Cheers
