Summary: Python2.5 can't read a (complex) pickle build by python2.4
Initial Comment:
Part of gnome-app-install in ubuntu is a pickle data structure cache. If I
create this pickle with python 2.4 and read it later with 2.5. I get the
following error:
$ python2.5 -c 'import pickle;
pickle.load(open("/var/cache/app-install/menu.p"))'
/usr/lib/python2.5/pickle.py:1124: DeprecationWarning: The sre module is
deprecated, please import re.
__import__(module)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pickle.py", line 1370, in load
return Unpickler(file).load()
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pickle.py", line 858, in load
dispatch[key](self)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pickle.py", line 1090, in load_global
klass = self.find_class(module, name)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pickle.py", line 1126, in find_class
klass = getattr(mod, name)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '_compile'
With:
$ python2.4 -c 'import pickle;
pickle.load(open("/var/cache/app-install/menu.p"))'
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $
It loads just fine.
The test pickle can be found here:

Cheers,
Michael

Thanks a lot for the patch. It works fine here with the patch.

Attaching the patch with a test here. Unpickling
old patterns with this patch works, but it still
issues a DeprecationWarning. The test itself is
a bit obscure, but the other option is to add
a binary file to the test suite.
File Added: sre_pickle_compatibility.diff

This happens because of SRE_Pattern objects in jour pickle.
The sre module was renamed to re in Python 2.5, but the
old pickles still expect the _compile function in sre module.
I posted the patch here:

Could you try if it fixes the problem for you and in that
case, attach it to this report?
