Package: bittornado
Version: 0.3.18-10
Severity: normal
Tags: patch upstream
in HTTPHandler.py, sys.stdout is imported using "from sys import stdout"
bttrack's logging is done by redirecting sys.stdout, but HTTPHandler is supposed
to handle flushing this stream. The previous bad import idiom means that
HTTPHandler never sees the new sys.stdout, so it never flushes it and logging
messages take forever to actually show up in the log file, or never at all if
bttrack crashes or is terminated.
Patch to fix this is supplied. Also applies to the "bittorrent" package.
Please forward upstream as appropriate.
