0.8.0 just got accepted for Debian Unstable:
http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/mypaint.html

Hoping you will sync this. That would also solve bug #493366

Those packages might need to be repackaged for ubuntu - I think numpy might be installed in a different place on debian, and I'm getting this:
ImportError: No module named numpy.core.multiarray

python-numpy is installed fine, the ubuntu version of mypain works fine.

[naught101 (naught101)]

Importing numpy.core.multiarray from python works fine, here's the traceback:

naught101@naught-laptop:~$ mypaint

[Benjamin Drung (bdrung)]

We have to merge the Debian package, because 0.8.0-2 still hardcodes the Python dependencies.

We are past the feature freeze. Therefore we need an exception for merging Debian's version. Please follow the freeze exception process [1] and provide the required information.

[Lenin (gagarin)]

debian's got version 0.8.2-1 now, i guess it's best if you take that version?

[Daniel Hahler (blueyed)]

Testing:
I've started mypaint, painted some (using a normal mouse) and exited the app.
I've not used the application before and therefore cannot test it really, apart from that it's not completely broken.

ACK, FFe granted.

two tiny notes:
* please revisit your changelog entry, you got the bug number twice ;)
* looking at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=570685: can you tighten the python-protobuf version in depends as suggested there?

Thanks,
  Stefan.

[Jon Nordby (jonnor)]

I just made a comment regarding python-protobuf version issue in Debian:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=570685#37

[Daniel Hahler (blueyed)]

Stefan, re point 2:
are you saying it should depend on python-protobuf >= 2.2.0a-0.1 ?

[StefanPotyra (sistpoty)]

Daniel, I'm saying that debian #570685 suggests that a depends on python-protobof >= 2.2.0a-0.1 might be in order.
@Jon, there's no package named protobuf... are your referring to something embedded within mypaint?

[Jon Nordby (jonnor)]

Sorry about that, I was referring to protobuf-compiler.

[StefanPotyra (sistpoty)]

Jon, thanks, that clears things up!

Since mypaint (0.8.2-1) build-depends on protobuf-compiler and depends on python-protobuf, I assume that adding the version to python-protobuf in the dependencies would be the right thing (even better if there were an automatic way to get the dependency sorted from the build-dependency, but I guess that's just whishful thinking)
