Binary package hint: anki

hi,

after upgrad from lucid to maverick Anki crashes on startup. it shows it's main window and immediately popups a dialogue box with the following:
===
Error during startup:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/anki/ankiqt/ui/main.py", line 97, in __init__
    self.syncDeck(interactive=False)
  File "/usr/share/anki/ankiqt/ui/main.py", line 2109, in syncDeck
    self.deck.close()
  File "/usr/share/anki/anki/deck.py", line 2222, in close
    self.s.clear()
  File "/usr/share/anki/anki/hooks.py", line 59, in repl
    return old(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/share/anki/anki/db.py", line 74, in __getattr__
    return getattr(self.__dict__['_session'], k)
AttributeError: 'Session' object has no attribute 'clear'

Synchronisation is enabled.
Anki works well under another account on the same computer, synchronisation is not enabled there.

You can download the latest version (1.0.1-1) from the Anki website:

http://anki.googlecode.com/files/anki_1.0.1-1_all.deb

Once installed, you should find that Anki starts with no issues again - it would however seem that 0.9.9.8.6-2 is indeed broken as I had this problem on both my installations running Maverick.

hi Andreas,

in maverick (anki version 0.9.9.8.6) "The sync protocol has changed. Please upgrade" msg popups.
i believe this will soon be solved with update to natty.

please resolve this. i'll open another bug if same issue happens in natty.

thanks, Vladimir
