Dear Piotr, I maintain the package "turing", which build-depends on python-jedi. I found the reason why python-jedi FTBFS: setup.py tries to find out the package's version by parsing jedi/__init__.py, but the parse tree was interpreted in two different ways, depending on python's version.
I checked that the right expressions to access the package's version is always `tree.body[1].value.s` and never `tree.body[0].value.s`, so I simplified the source code. Please find attached the patch used by quilt to fix this bug. In case you have no time to publish a new version of your package, I am pushing it as a NMU into DELAYED+15. Best regards, Georges. -- Georges KHAZNADAR et Jocelyne FOURNIER 22 rue des mouettes, 59240 Dunkerque France. Téléphone +33 (0)3 28 29 17 70
Cleaned out an alternative to assign the variable 'version' for
the package, which was not accessed in the same way, depending on
Python language's version.
It looked like a non-documented workaround to compensate some weird
behavior of an older version of the module ast.
