I'm seeing a strange issue with MusicBrainz Picard on Trixie and would like some feedback before I submit this to the BTS. Even though python3-fasteners is installed, the application fails to find the module.Since I am new to debian, I am not sure if this is something that can be fixed without filing a bug report. In case a bug report should be filed, should it be filed against picard or python3-fasteners.
This could be a bug, but I'd investigate it a bit further before filing a report. If you actually had to do so, it would be against picard: it looks unlikely that a module package made its way to stable with a bug grave enough to make it unavailable. If the maintainer of picard investigated it and found it's a python3-fasteners issue, he would then reassign it the report to the correct package.
Below is the draft of the report I have prepared. Does this look complete, or should I investigate the Python path further first?
Adding your Python module search path would be useful to investigate the issue. You can find it with this command:
``` printf "from sys import path\nprint(path)" | python ```Something probably happened in there, as I can run the same version of picard correctly (but I'm on sid and have python3-fasteners version 0.19-2).
--- DRAFT BUG REPORT --- Package: picard Version: 2.13.3-1 Severity: importantWhen attempting to start Picard, it fails to launch because the 'fasteners' module is missing. This suggests that 'python3-fasteners' should be added to the package dependencies or there is a path mismatch.
Note that picard already has python3-fasteners in its dependencies. Cheers, -- Ceppo https://wiki.debian.org/Ceppo Please, encrypt our messages with the key at the link above and send me yours.
