Kevin,
I built kodos in a sid pbuilder and installed the resulting package. Running
"kodos" didn't work. Here is the traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/kodos", line 30, in ?
from modules.kodosBA import *
ImportError: No module named modules.kodosBA
It looks to me that the problem is in the following change:
--- ../2.4.9-3/kodos-2.4.9/kodos.py 2006-10-26 10:00:45.000000000 -0600

to fix the problem. In the future consider using a patch management system
such as dpatch. It is quite easy to use and is meant exactly for this kind of
upstream source patching.
