Package: python-twitter Version: 0.6-1 Severity: normal
The twitter package uses the simplejson module which was included into Python 2.6's standard library. It would be nice if the twitter package would at least use the std library 'json' module as fallback if no simplejson is found. FYI: Python 2.6 only includes a pure-python version of simplejson as 'json' Python 2.7 will include a later version of simplejson (I think it is 2.0.9), where it should be faster by using a C implementation. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-powerpc Locale: LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages python-twitter depends on: ii python 2.5.4-9 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-simplejson 2.0.9-1 Simple, fast, extensible JSON enco ii python-support 1.0.6 automated rebuilding support for P python-twitter recommends no packages.
