Package: live-magic
Version: 1.6
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
When trying live-magic on Debian Unstable I get an error in the last step of
the wizard.
It tries to fork the 'live-magic-builder' process with vte. It then exits with:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/live-magic", line 26, in <module>

TypeError: envv must be a sequence or a dictionary
Looks like a change in python-vte caused this
(http://git.gnome.org/cgit/vte/commit/?id=56727a20b71cd5f960e468444ef544296ddc5edf),
so maybe this bug should be reassigned and fixed there....
But I worked around it with a tiny change in live-magic python code:
