Did you recompile your templates?  If not, please do so.  There were
changes to the compiled python code that are not portable from 0.9.15.
Check the README.Debian and NEWS files for details.  Additionally,
here is a recent post on the cheetahtemplate-discuss about
ErrorCatcher::

   ErrorCatcher is a debugging tool and was never meant for use in
   production systems.  What would lead you to have NotFound errors in
   production?

Bug#307352: python2.4-cheetah: errorCatcher fails

[Paul Jimenez]

Package: python2.4-cheetah
Version: 0.9.16-0
Severity: important


Existing cheetah code now causes a traceback:

  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Cheetah/Template.py", line 164, in 
__init__
self.compile(source, file)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Cheetah/Template.py", line 232, in 
compile
compiler.compile()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Cheetah/Compiler.py", line 1178, in 
compile
self._parser.parse()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Cheetah/Parser.py", line 1051, in parse
self.eatDirective()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Cheetah/Parser.py", line 1168, in 
eatDirective
self._directiveEaters[directiveKey]()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Cheetah/Parser.py", line 1630, in 
eatErrorCatcher
self.turnErrorCatcherOn()
  AttributeError: _HighLevelParser instance has no attribute 
'turnErrorCatcherOn'

Looking at the code, it looks as if *ErrorCatcher methods might have
been moved from Parser.py to Compiler.py without the calls to them in
eatErrorCatcher getting fixed.
