The patch attached to upstream bug 131 looks like it should be SRU'd to maverick and natty (both of which ship 0.6.0) and perhaps lucid: http://code.google.com/p/httplib2/issues/detail?id=131
That patch makes httplib2 raise the correct exception when encountering the error - socket timeout, instead of the confusing AttributeError. That's not a complete fix for this (and may invalidate any bandaids people might have added for ubuntuone, gwibber, or other apps), so I'm not 100% sure it's SRU-worthy. Looks like oneiric has moved to 0.7x which includes this patch already. ** Bug watch added: code.google.com/p/httplib2/issues #131 http://code.google.com/p/httplib2/issues/detail?id=131 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/523327 Title: python-httplib2 crashes with AttributeError in __init__() if connection refused To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/httplib2/+bug/523327/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
