As part of our ongoing research on Python dependency management, we identified a potential improvement in your project’s approach.
Specifically, the dependencies
django-bowerandsixare listed inrequirements/dev.txtandsetup.pyrepsectively, but don’t appear to be used anywhere in the codebase.In the case of
six, it seems to have been added as a workaround to supporttransifex-client, rather than being required by the application code itself. However,transifex-clientwas removed from the project in March 2022 (commit f90991e).Timeline Analysis:
six==1.11.0to maketransifexworktransifex-clientCleaning them up can make your project easier to maintain and a bit safer in the long run.
Hope this is helpful!
