This bug is marked as a duplicate of bug 342868 yet I cannot access that bug. Attempting to view https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/342868 returns: "Not allowed here. Sorry, you don't have permission to access this page."

As this is the case I am unable to comment there, so I will here. I am experiencing the same issue.

I am having the same error in jaunty

Cannot access bug 342868 either, so I post a workaround here : copying the module GoogleReader.py from Python2.5 directory to Python2.6 solves the problem. I guess it could be fixed in the deb package but don't know how to do it.

To sum up in one command :
sudo cp /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/GoogleReader.py /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/
