Confirmed in stretch. Can't reproduce in sid, since the package is not installable due to python-imaging being gone. Installing python-imaging from stretch in sid is possible, but results in different errors. > After replacing the tostring() calls with tobytes() as suggested, > the application becomes usable. > > I have attached a diff at the end of the report. There seem to be more occurrences of tostring in the source than the ones updated by your patch, do they need updating, too? Are the objects touched by your patch actally of the same problematic type? The signatures of the tostring() methods seems to differ. But I didn't dig deep... src/Shader.py:508: noise = pygame.image.tostring(img, "RGB") src/Texture.py:77: string = image.tostring('raw', 'RGBA', 0, -1) src/Texture.py:80: string = image.tostring('raw', 'RGB', 0, -1) src/Texture.py:83: string = image.tostring('raw', 'L', 0, -1) src/Texture.py:89: string = image.tostring('raw', 'RGB', 0, -1) src/Texture.py:114: string = pygame.image.tostring(surface, "RGB") src/Texture.py:116: string = image.tostring('raw', 'L', 0, -1) src/Texture.py:120: string = pygame.image.tostring(surface, "RGBA", True) src/Texture.py:123: string = pygame.image.tostring(surface, "RGB", True) src/Texture.py:133: string = pygame.image.tostring(surface, "RGB") src/Texture.py:135: string = image.tostring('raw', 'L', 0, -1) src/Texture.py:139: string = pygame.image.tostring(surface, "RGBA", True) src/Texture.py:142: string = pygame.image.tostring(surface, "RGB", True) src/Video.py:114: bigIconColorData = bigIcon.tostring() src/Video.py:115: bigIconMaskData = bigIcon.split()[3].point(lambda p: 255 - p).convert('1').tostring() src/Video.py:116: smallIconColorData = smallIcon.tostring() src/Video.py:117: smallIconMaskData = smallIcon.split()[3].point(lambda p: 255 - p).convert('1').tostring() src/FontTest.py:134: letter = pygame.image.tostring(letter_render, 'RGBA', 1) There is not much point fixing this without fixing https://bugs.debian.org/866423 i.e. switching from python-imaging to e.g. python-pil which may require interface adaptations as well.
