Upstream thinks splitting the scripts out and making that package depend on kross as well as the appropriate python stuff would be a good idea.

Though the problem that got exposed even with libkrosspython0 installed is a different one. I personally think it is a python 2.6 + Kross issue.

Google suggests only python2.6 system stumble upon such weird errors with Kross (then again I didn't find any trace of Fedora issues and AFAIK they are using 2.6 as well, so it might very well be Ubuntu specific).

For testing I'll attach a simple script, it really just imports Kross and ssl, whereas the latter is responsible for the error, although only in combination with the former. You can run the script with kross script.py

Note: this probably affects every script that uses urllib2, so pretty much every one accessing the Internet, so this is at least of Medium importance.
