Temporary fix

[JAremko]

Linkchecker doesn't work with the latest requests
see #74

[anarcat]

at the very least we need an explanation for the unusual version specification.

[anarcat]

this is odd - this is an issue with requests? i don't understand how >=2.2 would be better than >=2.2.0, they should be semantically equivalent...

[JAremko]

@anarcat linkchecker + new requests doesn't work for some reason (but it can be specific for alpinelinux)

this is odd - this is an issue with requests? i don't understand how >=2.2 would be better than >=2.2.0, they should be semantically equivalent.

yeah I just "shortened it" 😄

[anarcat]

hmm... well, we deliberately included this check in 9c9cf0c which fixed wummel/linkchecker#478 - could you clarify how downgrading requests fixes this problem and why this is not a bug with requests?

[JAremko]

@anarcat 2.2 is ok but newer one (mb 2.15) is problematic. See linkchecker log https://travis-ci.org/syl20bnr/develop.spacemacs.org/builds/245720094?utm_source=github_status&utm_medium=notification

oh. i see. somehow I thought 2.15 was lower than 2.2.0 :p everything is fine then. i would suggest we keep #74 open to fix 2.15+ support properly, however.

@anarcat happens to me all the time 🤣

Hi,

I hadn't noticed your avatar or profile messages during the discussion here. Please be aware that Linkchecker operates under a code of conduct which include, among other things, "Using welcoming and inclusive language" and "Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences". References to symbols defined by the Anti-Defamation League as "racist" qualifies as a breach of this code of conduct.

If you wish to continue participating in this project, you will have to change your profile image and comments.

As a gesture of good faith, this pull request was merged regardless, but future contributions may be refused on those grounds, as explained in the code of conduct.

@anarcat You gave me link to BBC news 😕 Here is a link to the actually ADL entry

I suggest you pay attention to this segments:

Pepe the Frog character did not originally have racist or anti-Semitic connotations. Internet users appropriated the character and turned him into a meme, placing the frog in a variety of circumstances and saying many different things.

However, because so many Pepe the Frog memes are not bigoted in nature, it is important to examine use of the meme only in context. The mere fact of posting a Pepe meme does not mean that someone is racist or white supremacist.

So perhaps you shouldn't use BBC as your only source of news?

I'm personally support efforts of ADL and Matt Furie(Pepe creator) in Campaign to #SavePepe

We are going to work with Matt and his community of artists reclaim Pepe so that he might be used as a force for good, or at the very least to help educate people about the dangers of prejudice and bigotry.

---

I have no idea what kind of context you have used to label me as a racist (see article). But here is some:

I'm Ukrainian. My country has a military conflict that killed and displaced thousands of innocent people, our economy is in shambles and our government is beyond incompetent. And while many of my friends are Russians the general public of Ukraine and Russia are zombified and driven mad with hatred towards each other. But we have the online temple of peace and understanding "Runet" the space where all russian speaking people of Post-Soviet states can share their struggle and bound with each other. Pepe become a symbol of this struggle to us.
