This is no longer necessary. As it seems, this piece of code must no longer be executed when a recent (say Debian unstable as of today) python is installed. regards, Enver -- Package-specific info: ** Environment settings: EDITOR="joe" ** /home/intuidev/.reportbugrc: reportbug_version "3.5" mode standard ui text realname "Enver Haase" email "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages reportbug depends on: ii python2.3 2.3.4-19 An interactive high-level object-o -- no debconf information --------------------------------------- Received: (at 290043-done) by bugs.debian.org; 14 Jan 2005 20:27:38 +0000 >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Jan 14 12:27:38 2005 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from ms-smtp-02.nyroc.rr.com [24.24.2.56] by spohr.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1CpY2j-0001oB-00; Fri, 14 Jan 2005 12:27:37 -0800 Received: from andromeda (syr-24-59-54-124.twcny.rr.com [24.59.54.124]) by ms-smtp-02.nyroc.rr.com (8.12.10/8.12.10) with ESMTP id j0EKRZJj001500 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Fri, 14 Jan 2005 15:27:35 -0500 (EST) Received: from pryzbyj by andromeda with local (Exim 4.34) id 1CpY2g-0006ij-8h for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Fri, 14 Jan 2005 15:27:34 -0500 Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2005 15:27:34 -0500 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Bug#290043: running reportbug needs an old version of python Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.6+20040907i From: Justin Pryzby <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> X-Virus-Scanned: Symantec AntiVirus Scan Engine Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60-bugs.debian.org_2005_01_02 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on spohr.debian.org X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-6.0 required=4.0 tests=BAYES_00,HAS_BUG_NUMBER autolearn=no version=2.60-bugs.debian.org_2005_01_02 X-Spam-Level: On Fri, Jan 14, 2005 at 03:58:34PM +0100, Enver Haase wrote: > > Below is the output of reportbug on my system with a > (you guessed right!) missing /etc/python2.3/site.py > due to a system restore (old /etc/ on an otherwise > newly set-up system). > Idiotic thing is that is seems a python "dpkg -i" > is only possibl when a site.py is already there, but > I had one as a backup, reportbug works again. > > Request closing this bug, with big thanks! > > --Enver > > > haneman:/etc# LC_ALL=C reportbug > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 27, in ? > import site > ImportError: No module named site > > > > Chris Lawrence wrote: > > >Please send the actual text of the error message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > >More than likely, you (or someone else on your system or disk failure) > >has corrupted your /etc/python2.3/site.py file in some way.
