Dear Maintainer,

When using tvnamer to rename files, I get an error:

$ python3 -m tvnamer.main --dry-run ~/Videos/download/file.mp4
Traceback (most recent call last):

    self.session.remove_expired_responses()
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'CachedSession' object has no attribute 'remove_expired_responses'


This error is caused because python3-tvdb-api 3.1-4 uses the API method which
has been removed in python3-requests-cache 1.2.0, and Debian ships 1.2.1-1.

For the version info see
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/plover_plugins_manager#comment-988008

Changes:
 tvdb-api (3.1-5) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * debian/patches/requests-cache-1.2.patch
     - port to requests-cache 1.x, which removed remove_expired_responses(),
       has_key() and the cache attributes create_key() used; Closes: #1084947
   * debian/patches/tests-recorded-cache.patch
     - load the recorded TheTVDB responses with requests-cache 1.x, so tests
       run offline again
   * debian/patches/PR97.patch
     - add Origin and Applied-Upstream headers, it's merged upstream
   * debian/patches/PR105.patch
     - add Forwarded and Bug-Debian headers
   * debian/control
     - bump debhelper compat to 14; add dh-sequence-python3 and
       dh-sequence-single-binary to b-d, replacing dh-python
     - b-d on python3-all instead of python3
     - add pybuild-plugin-pyproject to b-d
     - add pytest-env to b-d, needed by tests
     - enable Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-pybuild
     - version requests-cache in Depends to >= 1.0, needed by
       requests-cache-1.2.patch
     - drop requests and the substvars from Depends, now generated and applied
       automatically
     - drop Priority, optional is now the default
     - extend the long description
     - bump Standards-Version to 4.7.4.1 (no further changes needed)
   * debian/rules
     - run tests at build time again, they no longer need network access
     - drop --with python3, replaced by dh-sequence-python3
     - export PYBUILD_NAME
     - build with the pyproject plugin, instead of the deprecated setup.py
       install
     - drop override_dh_auto_install, dh_auto_install already installs the
       module; it installed it a second time and removed the metadata, which
       dh_python3 now uses to generate Depends
     - drop override_dh_clean, pybuild already removes the egg-info
   * debian/pybuild.testfiles
     - remove, pybuild copies pytest.ini and tests by default
   * debian/watch
     - switch to version 5, using the GitHub template
   * debian/upstream/metadata
     - add Changelog
   * debian/copyright
     - extend packaging copyright years
