jabber folder is superfluous and breaks import

[Ralph Janke]

Binary package hint: python-jabber

The module is installed into the folder "/usr/share/python-support/python-jabber/jabber/". However, this makes it necessary to import the module with import jabber.jabber instead of just import jabber.

Solution: Move all files in the jabber folder into its parent folder.

The __init.py__ is broken, that is why it is not importing correctly (At least I think so...)

The following works for me:

Change the content of
/usr/share/python-support/python-jabber/jabber/__init__.py

to
__all__ = ['jabber', 'xmlstream']

and everthing works like a charme.

(Version of python-jabber = 0.5.0-1.4 on Gutsy)

The solution with the change of the __init__.py does not work for me

[Richard Verwayen (ys76)]

None of the above mentioned solutions are working right now.

Even the example scripts in the package aren't working any longer.

[Richard Verwayen (ys76)]

"Import jabber.jabber" seems to be the right way, since jabber contains more than just the jabber thingy but xmlstream too.

So at least the examples in /usr/share/doc/python-jabber/examples/ should be changed to reflect the changes.
