Hi,
I tracked the issue down to
https://sources.debian.org/patches/libprelude/5.2.0-4/025-Fix-PyIOBase_Type.patch
Although the patch changes the content of
bindings/python/libpreludecpp-python.i, swig is never called during the
build to recreate _prelude.cxx.
The final package therefore acts as if the patch had never been there in
the first place.
The attached patch for debian/rules ensures that the file gets
regenerated. After applying the patch, the module can be imported.
Due to the difference between the swig version initially used to build
_prelude.cxx (4.0.1) and the one in Debian testing/sid (4.0.2), the diff
output between both versions of _prelude.cxx is quite long (730 lines).
However, I have been running with the patch for 24h and haven't seen any
problem so far.
Best regards,
François
