severity 516518 grave tags 516518 - moreinfo unreproducible thanks Hi,
I can reproduce the bug. I'm raising the severity as it leaves python-cairo completely unusable (it can't be imported from any python version). The problem is due to the switch to python-support, there were probably some files that have to be removed in postrm but aren't right now: We start with the package from testing, which uses python-central: emi...@saturno:~$ dpkg -l python-cairo | grep ii ii python-cairo 1.4.12-1.2 Python bindings for the Cairo vector graphics library The symlinks are correct, and we can import the cairo module emi...@saturno:~$ ll /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/cairo/ total 80 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 70564 ene 14 20:53 _cairo.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 mar 27 00:06 __init__.py -> /usr/share/pyshared/cairo/__init__.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 174 ene 15 13:12 __init__.pyc Now we update to python-cairo from unstable, which has switched to python-support: emi...@saturno:~$ LC_ALL=C sudo aptitude install python-cairo Reading package lists...
