Hi all

After looking a bit closer at the python packaging teams page, I will
very much like to join the team to maintain the package =)

My Alioth login is "awen-guest".

Cheers,
Andreas

python-uniconvertor breaks help("modules") in python

2008-11-24 Thread Andreas Wenning
Hi fellow pythonians
(CC to debian-mentors)

I have a bug[1] against my package[2] that it breaks running help("modules") 
in python when the package is installed (more precisely, it kills the python 
interpreter when trying to import the package).

It looks to qualify for having a severity grave[3] as it "makes unrelated 
software on the system break". Can anyone with more insight into the policies 
advice me if I should consider doing something special for lenny?

Thx,
Andreas

note: Version in lenny and ubuntu/intrepid is both 1.1.2-1
note: Fixed in newest version in unstable 1.1.3-4
