pitivi does not work with python2.6

[j^]

Binary package hint: pitivi

pitivi does not work with python 2.6 since it uses "as" as a variable name.
attached patch replaces offending variable with a save name

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package pitivi - 0.11.3-1ubuntu1

---------------
pitivi (0.11.3-1ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/01_python2.6_fix.patch: Add. Rename 'as' to 'asettings'
    in pitivi.timeline.timeline.Timeline.getAutoSettings(), to work with
    Python 2.6. (LP: #339312)

Danny are you using intrepid or jaunty? And can you paste your sources.list?

[Kẏra (thekyriarchy)]

I'm using jaunty 64-bit and the gstreamer ppa i'm using is:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gstreamer-developers/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

[Alessandro Decina (alessandro.decina)]

I can't reproduce this. I can install and upgrade from that repo.

these are the python-gst0.10 deps i can see:

Package: python-gst0.10
Source: gst0.10-python
Version: 0.10.14.1~git20090312-1~jaunty1
....
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.16.0), libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 (>= 0.10.22), libgstreamer0.10-0 (>= 0.10.22), libpython2.6 (>= 2.6), libxml2 (>= 2.6.27), python (<< 2.7), python (>= 2.5), python-central (>= 0.6.11), python-gobject (>= 2.11.2), python-libxml2

so i don't know where that < 2.6 is coming from

[Kẏra (thekyriarchy)]

i removed some intrepid repos (oops) from my sources.list and that fixed the problem. the problem was on my end, sorry

Regardless of the Intrepid lines, anything involving a PPA is not a bug in Ubuntu.

[Alessandro Decina (alessandro.decina)]

yes but I didn't change the status as danny replied to an actual bug that was closed and the fix released
