Package: python3-tempita Version: 0.5.2-6 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
Debian Bullseye has python3.8, in which cgi.escape has been deprecated. Tempita uses cgi.escape for its HTMLTemplate class, so calls fail with an AttributeError: module 'cgi' has no attribute 'escape'. Debian Buster still uses python3.7 so it works there. This example demonstrates the failure: from tempita import HTMLTemplate t = HTMLTemplate("Hello {{name}}") t.substitute({'name':'Tempita'}) The code causing the AttributeError is in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/tempita/__init__.py and can be patched as follows: line 34, instead of: import cgi change to: from html import escape lines 448 and 451, instead of: cgi.escape( change to: escape( -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.6.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages python3-tempita depends on: ii python3 3.8.2-3 python3-tempita recommends no packages. python3-tempita suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
