This is fixed with current python-json-patch from upstream (1.16)

[Michael Hudson-Doyle (mwhudson)]

The only blocker here is figuring out how to align the version number of the new python-json-patch upload with Debian. I guess something like 1.19+really1.16 invites future pain a bit less than an epoch bump.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package python-json-patch - 1.19+really1.16-0ubuntu1

---------------
python-json-patch (1.19+really1.16-0ubuntu1) artful; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release (the previously packaged version is really 1.10
    despite what the version number says). (LP: #1704024)
