Please replace line with parameters instead of wrong positional arguments.
Testen on python 2.7.x and 3.5.x fixes both.

return self.connect(host, port, keepalive, bind_address, clean_start, properties)

            return self.connect(host=host, port=port, keepalive=keepalive, bind_address=bind_address, clean_start=clean_start, properties=properties)

In case this bug isn't clear - this is serious (i.e. breaking) issue. The connect line in client.py is not passing the arguments through in the correct locations to connect(). As far as I can see, this means args like clean_start don't work at all.

I am not sure how to contribute here even more than I already did.
My code running a real project broke, I needed the SRV functions.
I found the problem, debugged it, fixed it and submitted a patch.
Who is responsible for maintaining this code base?

Also #442 (comment)

Any update on this? This bug breaks the client and is trivial to fix.

[and3rson]

Any updates? This really breaks the connect_srv and makes it unusable.

this looks still not fixed

@icraggs : please fix what you broke
