clone 631212 -1 retitle -1 python-cloudservers: breaks with the python2.7-provided argparse # The patch provided by Carl only fixes the issue in wheezy/sid tags -1 wheezy sid patch tags 631212 squeeze thanks
Hello Carl, dear maintainer, Unfortunately python-cloudservers is broken in squeeze and in wheezy/sid in two different ways: - In squeeze, an unconditional dependency on python-simplejson is needed for the python2.5 module to work. - In wheezy/sid, the simplejson dependency is useless (as it is provided by python2.6 and 2.7). But cloudservers now breaks with the python2.7-provided argparse module, which doesn't register itself in the pkg-resources repository. I think your patch fixes the second issue, but of course it doesn't fix the package in squeeze which should be fixed separately, hence the bug cloning. Furthermore, I think there could be a cleaner option to remove the "argparse" requirement in pkg-resources, and I think this was done in the past for simplejson, when it became provided by python2.6.
