The vendored html2text is *really* old and absolutely not
P3-compatible.
There is a maintained version on Pypy which is, so use that and stop
vendoring html2text.
In Python 3 the native acceleration module was merged into pickle
directly.
For cross-version simplicity, just use the base module in Python 2 as
well, we can reintroduce the accelerator somehow if it turns out too
much of a performance hit.
In Python 3, all of these were "consolidated" under urllib(.request,
.parse, .errors) which is inconvenient.
Since we already have hard dependencies on requests and
werkzeug(.urls, which is a backport of Python 3's unicode-aware
urllib.parse) migrate *everything* to that.
A sticking point is urllib2.URLError, those were (mostly) replaced by
the slightly more general IOError which URLError extends.
In Python 3:
* various builtins and dict methods were changed to return
view/iterable objects rather than lists
* and the separate Python 2 view/iterable builtins and methods were
removed altogether
This is problematic when using these items as list (which the happens
repeatedly in Odoo), but more viciously when iterating *multiple times*
over them (which also happens, which I've messed up multiple times while
writing this, and which is a pain to debug even when you've just created
the issue).
Convert all code using these to semantics-matching cross-version
helper functions to get the LCD behaviour between P2 and P3, and
forbid the builtins via lint.
issue #8530
- RML Reports
- Webkit Reports (most part already removed by 13b9982c62)
- LocalService in netsvc.py
- rename attributes like rml_% to report_%
- rename ir.actions.report.xml to ir.actions.report
- allow rendering directly on an ir.actions.report by calling render method
- remove 'controller' report_type
- remove unused res.font stuff
- remove print_report method in models.py (not used)
- restore removed call to pdftotext process in test_reports
* in P3, the iterator stepping method has become a dunder method (next
-> __next__), the protocol has not changed, add a __next__ alias to
the iterator-next definition (nota: ir.config also has a next method
but it's not part of an iterator, so don't alias it and don't
convert calls to it)
* since ~2.6, a builtin (next()) has been added to step an iterator &
allow for a default (in case of iterator end), convert all manual
stepping to the builtin

Introspection attributes on function and methods were originally
prefixed with func_ or im_ e.g. im_class or func_name. For coherence with the
rest of the data model, Python 3 added dunder attributes (__func__,
__code__) and removed the old style, the dunder attributes were
backported to Python 2.6.
Use dunder attributes everywhere we're currently using func_* or im_*
attributes.

Redundant with `in` and removed from Python 3.
Removed odd, old and long-unused UpdatableDict (which defines and uses
has_key) and UpdatableStr (which was nearby and caught in the blast),
validated with al.
(lib2to3.fixes.fix_has_key)
Add a method to format a date in a given language. This appears to be
useful since formatting is not always done by QWeb, but also:
- in mail templates
- in formatted strings (error messages, pre-filled text fields)
RecordSets were not preserving order when combined
with AND/OR set operators. Order was lost as well
through mapped().
This caused various recurring "heisenbugs" during
tests executions on runbot, specifically comming
in the test of stock_landed_costs.
Using OrderedSets instead of basic Sets to resolve
these operation avoids the indetermination.
This required an implementation of __or__ / __and__
for OrderedSet.
