jeffwidman force-pushed the dont-use-broker-errors-for-client-side-problems branch 2 times, most recently from 7da8eb1 to dd8d304 Compare `UnsupportedVersionError` is intended to indicate a server-side error: https://github.com/dpkp/kafka-python/blob/ba7372e44ffa1ee49fb4d5efbd67534393e944db/kafka/errors.py#L375-L378 So we should not be raising it for client-side errors. I realize that semantically this seems like the appropriate error to raise. However, this is confusing when debugging... for a real-life example, see Parsely/pykafka#697. So I strongly feel that server-side errors should be kept separate from client-side errors, even if all the client is doing is proactively protecting against hitting a situation where the broker would return this error.
