After short discussion on IRC with Adam, I've changed safe_execute to look like this: def safe_execute(self, query, params=None): try: self.dbc.execute(query, params) except self.factory.settings.database.OperationalError: try: self.db.close() except: pass self.db = None retries = 0 while not self.db and retries < 30: try: self.db = self.factory.settings.database.connect(**self.factory.settings.dbsettings) self.dbc = self.db.cursor() except self.factory.settings.database.OperationalError: self.db = None retries += 1 sleep(1) if self.db: self.dbc.execute(query, params) else: self.factory.settings.logger('Could not reconnect to the database, exiting.\n') reactor.stop() and uploaded this as 0.1.4-1 (yes, new upstream ;)) to sid. Please unblock this one instead. TIA -- Bruce Schneier can read and understand Perl programs. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
