[SRU] ttx2xgf crashed with ModuleNotFoundError

[Sudip Mukherjee]

[ Impact ]

The commands "xgridfit", "xgfconfig" and "ttx2xgf" fails to run and crashes immediately when executed by the user.

$ xgridfit
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/xgridfit", line 4, in <module>
    from xgflib import run_xgridfit
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'xgflib'

$ xgfconfig
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/xgfconfig", line 3, in <module>
    from xgflib import run_config
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'xgflib'

$ ttx2xgf
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ttx2xgf", line 3, in <module>
    from xgflib import run_ttx2xgf
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'xgflib'

[ Test Plan ]

install xgridfit.

execute xgridfit
execute xgfconfig
execute ttx2xgf

If the package is not fixed, all the three commands will fail with the above error.

With the fixed package, it will display the help menu.

[ Where problems could occur ]

These commands were shipped with the package but have never worked as the python module was not added to the package. This change only adds the python module to the package so that these commands can find the module while executing. There should not be any regression due to this fix as its not changing any code and just installing the missing module.

But on the other hand, since these commands have never worked before, so any bugs in these commands were never noticed before. And so, there is a possibility that when these commands can now be actually executed, users might notice bugs with these and file new bugs.

[ Other Info ]

It has been fixed in Debian via 2.3-5 package and so Oracular is also fixed.

The Debian package also added another change to remove $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp/usr/local/lib/python* in d/rules. It had to be added as they updated debhelper version to 13 in which dh_missing will default to --fail-missing and the build will fail. But that is not needed for this SRU.

[ Original Bug Description ]

ttx2xgf fails to run with the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ttx2xgf", line 3, in <module>
