[Bug 1433324] Re: provide whl packages in trusty to enable pyvenv in python3.4

[Matthias Klose]

** Description changed:

  to enable pyvenv in trusty, we need a number of -whl packages in trusty.
  For the normal case, this is just adding a new separate binary package,
  sometimes the build system needs to use setuptools. Other needed changes
  are described below. The python3.4 update is tracked in lp: #1348954.
  
  test criterium for accepting these packages should be a successful
  build, a check that the original packages are not modified, and the new
  packages are not empty.
  
  The version number may be sometimes odd looking. Packages were prepared
  in the ubuntu-toolchain-r/ppa, and I'd like to use version number higher
  than in this PPA.
+ 
+ wheel: wheel is not part of trusty, so just take the first upload to
+ utopic.
+ 
+ six: Build a -whl package (setuptools is needed to build the wheel
+ package).
+ 
+ chardet: 2.0.1 in trusty is not ready for Python3. Backport the package
+ from utopic (source name chardet-whl), and just build the
+ python3-chardet and python-chardet-whl packages (both new in trusty).
+ 
+ distlib: Build a -whl package (setuptools is needed to build the wheel
+ package).
+ 
+ html5lib: Build a -whl package (setuptools is needed to build the wheel
+ package). Just use the packaging of the next Debian version.
