I'm removing the lazr.restfulclient task from this bug; this is tracked
in bug 1672458 instead.  (I'd have marked that bug as a duplicate of
this one, but as is often the way with bugs with many tasks, Launchpad
is having trouble with the number of structural subscriptions and is
timing out on me.  More focused bugs are easier to deal with anyway.)

** No longer affects: launchpadlib

Bug description:
  This bug tracks the removal of python-oauth from the archive.  (See
  also
  https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-r-python3-oauth
  for additional details).

  There are several very good reasons to remove python-oauth and port
  all reverse depends to python-oauthlib.

   * upstream oauth has been abandoned since 2009
   * upstream oauth only supports OAuth 1 (and probably not even the RFC 5849 standard)
   * upstream oauth only supports Python 2
   * upstream oauthlib is actively maintained
   * upstream oauthlib supports Python 2 and Python 3
   * upstream oauthlib supports RFC 5849 and the OAuth2 spec draft

  As of yet, we cannot remove python-oauth because of existing reverse
  dependencies.  I'll add each of those as bug tasks to this one for
  tracking purposes.  When the time comes, I'll subscribe ~ubuntu-
  archive to the bug to do the final deed.

  It will need to be blacklisted from Debian sync too.

  In the meantime, *please* don't write any new code using python-oauth!
  Use python-oauthlib.
