Unable to upload - ValueError: Unable to encode lists with elements that are not 2-tuples. about python-redmine

Hi Jesse!

I can confirm this problem with requests 0.12.1, but I'm afraid there's nothing I can do, because Redmine wants files to be uploaded as a part of the request body with application/octet-stream header and requests library only supports this from 0.13.1 (see first entry in the changelog).

So if you need file uploads you have to upgrade from requests 0.12.1 to 0.13.1. Is it possible for you ? If not, I think I can write a file upload functionality using python's urllib if requests is lower then 0.13.1, let me know if you need this, but the easiest way is just to upgrade.

Thanks for the quick response, Max! I'm pretty sure I can upgrade from the Debian package to a recent stable version using pip. Let me try that and I'll be back in touch. Thanks!

I was able to install requests using pip, and file uploads work well now. Thank you for your help!

Cool.

Anyway, thanks for reporting this, when I have time I'll try to introduce a workaround using python's urllib for those who for some reason can't upgrade.
