Package: python-twisted-core
Version: 8.0.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
twisted/internet/glib2reactor.py in the install() function is missing
the return statement. This makes the glib2reactor useless. The patch is
a trivial one liner (see attachment).
The bug still exists in upstream trunk. I have reported it to
twistedmatrix as well [1] but I would appreciate it if Debian can add
this simple fix until it is fixed upstream and the new upstream version
has been packaged for Debian.

Kind regards,
Sander Marechal
