This is still happening in 12.04. The problem is that the reason variable
coming from an IOError is an (errno, strerror) tuple, so
reasonstr = "\nReason: %s" % reason if reason is not None else
""
raises a TypeError. You could change this to
reasonstr = "\nReason: %s" % str(reason)
For reason == None, this would result in "Reason: None", which I think
is better than "".
For reason == (123, 'Some error'), it would result in "Reason: (123,
'Some error')" instead of crashing.
Of course, the IOError itself should be avoided by some delay, as well,
as heynnema suggested, but this patch would at least avoid the crash.
