Description

i'm migrating some random old packages to python3 and ran into a few things while running initial tests.

  1. the OLD dogpile package, which was the filler/namespace, doesn't install in Python3 because file() is no more. the error is puzzling if you don't know what to look for.
  2. the OLD dogpile.core package, which is now in here, still points to bitbucket

perhaps the old repos can be moved to github and pypi updated to say 'don't use this!!!'

Research direction

Start by inspecting the old dogpile and dogpile.core package metadata and their PyPI and repository pages. Reproduce the Python 3 installation failure, then determine the required repository links and deprecation wording; done means the obsolete packages clearly direct users away and the relevant links and PyPI information are updated.
