Public bug reported:
Today I did a full upgrade of my Intrepid Ibex system. After finishing,
Mnemosyne (package 'mnemosyne') began to always crash on startup:
I suspected the corruption until I removed ~/.mnemosyne entirely. Here's what I
see:

I initially thought perhaps it was a python2.4 vs python2.5 issue, but
editing /usr/bin/mnemosyne to invoke 2.4 specifically didn't help.
Removing and reinstalling didn't help either.
What *did* help was
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:22440~>dpkg -i
python-pygame_1.7.1release-4.1ubuntu1_amd64.deb [ 4:38PM]
dpkg - warning: downgrading python-pygame from 1.8.1release-0ubuntu1 to
1.7.1release-4.1ubuntu1.
...
After which Mnemosyne opens up fine. I emailed the author while trying
to debug it, and he said if it was a pygame issue, "I'd open an Ubuntu
report about this. Intrepid is still in alpha, I think, and there seems
to be some issue with pygame there." So I guess that means the issue is
not Mnemosyne's fault.
