Unpin `backoff` dependency
samueldg opened this issue · 2 comments
The way the backoff library is currently specified in the setup.py doesn't allow users to upgrade it, as it's pinned to 1.10:
Line 27 in bf7168d
backoff recently released 1.11.0 and 1.11.0: https://pypi.org/project/backoff/#history
This seems like the dependency was just not introduced with a permissive semver operator (>=, ~=):
3cd1630
but maybe there's a particular reason to keep it that way?
If not I can submit a PR.
@samueldg We would just need to ensure that the new version of backoff does not affect current functionality. If you would like to submit a PR, I would be glad to test and get this moved forward. Thank you.

The changelog doesn't seem to indicate any breaking change:
https://github.com/litl/backoff/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#v1110-2021-07-12
but the proof will be in the testing 😄
