pypi: dead homepage link, thinks 10.04 is latest release

[rofl0r]

imo you should fix the homepage link on pypi to point here not to google code (404).
also pypi thinks the almost 10 year old 10.04 release is the last released one.

ping. This is a problem alright!

@techtonik is this project something you no longer wish to maintain? do you need some help?

Hi ppl. I've just noticed that Tidelift needs a valid link to GitHub repo and remembered I've seen this issue.

The reason I got back to python-patch are several CVEs for GNU Patch (#65), so I decided to finally give some love to this utility. I also interested to evaluate if Tidelift and Liberapay can generate any breakfast money. So expect a new release soon.

Removed 10.04 from PyPI. There were no code uploaded, so nothing is lost.

https://pypi.org/project/patch homepage now correctly points to GitHub, but https://libraries.io/pypi/patch did not update. Guess it needs a new release, which is blocked by failing Travis test, that depend on pypack experiencing problems with Python 3.4.8 - https://travis-ci.org/techtonik/python-patch/jobs/577891157#L212 It was ok with Python 3.4.2 so I need more time to look into that.

My 2 cents: drop support for Python 3.4

[techtonik]

Something was changed and now 3.5+ doesn't work with the same error.

[techtonik]

Adding CI to https://github.com/techtonik/pypack - looks like Python 3 compatibility was broken right after pypack 0.1 (last 0.2 and 0.3 version don't work).

i'm very much in favor of keeping py2 support myself. my distro sabotage linux uses only py2 things by default (basically anything that uses python for building, works with py2, so thankfully we don't need to have 2 different py versions installed to bootstrap the system from source). also i pretty much enjoy python2 being a "completed" language,
i.e. nothing changes and the language isn't constantly redesigned behind my back.

anyway, thanks for updating the links!

libraries.io still was not updated this morning, so resynced the project manually - librariesio/libraries.io#2420 (comment)

Homepage is now Ok everythere, 10.04 is gone. Yay! =)
