Package: bookletimposer
Version: 0.3
Symptom: bookletimposer does not open on ubuntu 20.04.
Problem is in file 'config.py'.
# Error in duplicate naming
# using the same name for the function 'debug(msg)' and the boolean
variable 'debug' results in the boolean variable 'debug' being always True.
# Correction : give function another name (or give boolean variable
another name)
