Package: apt-proxy
Version: 1.9.34
Severity: important

After upgrading to 1.9.34 apt-proxy failed to start for me with the
following error:

  # /etc/init.d/apt-proxy start
  Starting apt-proxy
  Failed to load application: cannot import name http
  .

Grepping through the python source files shows that the http module is
a twisted thing.  So I upgraded to python-twisted/testing (2.4.0-2)
and it fixed it (the version listed below is from stable).  The
upgrade pulled in quite few new python-twisted-* modules, many of
which I then purged (after using deborphan to work out they weren't
needed).

So I guess the Dependencies line of the package description for
apt-proxy should be changed to remove this bit:

  | python-twisted (<< 2.1.0)

To leave this:

  python-twisted-web (>= 0.6)

Cheers,
Mark.
