Description

CacheControl is a port of the caching algorithms in httplib2_ for use with requests_ session object. It was written because httplib2's better support for caching is often mitigated by its lack of threadsafety. The same is true of requests in terms of caching. This is the Python 2 build of CacheControl.

Compatible with all RHEL-based distributions, including CentOS, AlmaLinux, Oracle Linux, Rocky Linux, etc.
