requestsync needs updating

[Albin Tonnerre]

Binary package hint: ubuntu-dev-tools

As per IRC, on #ubuntu-devel:

14:27 < Lutin> is requestsync known to be broken in karmic ?
14:28 < Q-FUNK> Lutin: in what way?
14:28 < Lutin> Q-FUNK: http://pastebin.ca/1547065
14:29 < Q-FUNK> odd
14:30 < Q-FUNK> I was gonna say that the only breakage I've seen is when Debian's log server hasn't been updated, but what you've pasted is Python crashing.
14:30 < Q-FUNK> still, I'd venture that it's cuased by yet another generic breakage in Karmic's Python
14:31 < wgrant> No.
14:31 < wgrant> It's the launchpadlib split.
14:31 < Q-FUNK> wgrant: ah? so requestsync needs to have its depends adjusted?
14:31 < wgrant> A couple of days ago we got the new launchpadlib, where most of the code now lives in lazr.restfulclient.
14:32 < wgrant> Q-FUNK: No - ubuntu-dev-tools code needs to be fixed to work with the new one.

So apparently requestsync needs porting to this new interface. I don't know the code well enough to do that myself, though.

Albin

It's already fixed in trunk (r485).
Simply change in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/ubuntutools/lp/lpapiwrapper.py the line "from launchpadlib.resource import Entry" to "from lazr.restfulclient.resource import Entry" if you don't want to wait on a new upload.

Fixed in ubuntu-dev-tools 0.76.
