Package: bti
Version: 032-1
Justification: renders package unusable
Severity: grave

Hi.  I just installed bti to test it as a command line twitter client,
but it is unable to connect to twitter and report this message:

  % bti
  Twitter no longer supports HTTP basic authentication.
  Both consumer key, and consumer secret are required for bti in order to 
behave as an OAuth consumer.
  % 

I suspect this is a variation of the bug reported in
<URL: http://bugs.debian.org/714032 >, but am not sure.

I'm setting severity to grave, as it make the package in Debian stable
unusable for all twitter users (no idea about identica users), and given
that a lot more people use twitter than identica, it make it unusable
for the majority of potential users.  I believe this bug would have been
release critical if discovered before wheezy was released, and thus also
believe it is release critical now.
