It is our (maintainers and co-maintainers of the python-flask package) goal to get Flask 0.9 in EPEL. As the first step toward this goal, I have picked up the orphaned python-werkzeug, and we need to update it to a newer version, compatible with Flask.
I've built (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4239046) Werkzeug 0.8.3 for EPEL 6, and am about to push it to EPEL 6 testing.
As such, we've obtained approval (as per the incompatible upgrades policy: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL_incompatible_upgrades_policy) to proceed with updating Werkzeug.
There are a number of incompatible changes between what's EPEL 6 right now (Werkzeug 0.6.2) and 0.8.3, and there is a changelog provided by upstream, available here: http://werkzeug.pocoo.org/docs/changes/
Please test your Werkzeug applications against 0.8.3 and provide feedback/karma in the Bodhi updates page for it:
