Package: attic
Version: 0.10-1
Severity: grave

Hi,

attic uses #!/usr/bin/python3 as interpreter, but has native (cython)
modules that were compiled with a certain python3 version (3.3 in the
archive, but depends on python3-dev version at build time).

As testing now switched to 3.4 as default, the attic python3 dependency
means that /usr/bin/python3 is always python3.4, which does not work
with the python3.3 native modules in attic.


attic should imho depend on the python3 "sub" version used to
compile, and use this explicit version in the #!/usr/bin/python3...
line too.


Without this the package is mostly useless and may lead to data loss
as the backup system is not working. (although the old backups should
keep working as soon as this is fixed).

As a workaround one can install python3.3 and change the first line
in /usr/bin/attic to #!/usr/bin/python3.3; remember this also needs to
be done on the server for repositores over SSH.

Rebuilding the package with python3-dev from current testing also fixes
the problem.
