Bug Description

Binary package hint: sugar-web-activity

Browse activity in intrepid fails to start. The LogViewer reports:

from hulahop.webview import lookup_view
Cannot import lookup_view

I confirmed that python-hulahop is installed.

This is likely to be a different bug than #263173.

Fixed in the latest stable upstream release of hulahop. debdiff attached. I've tested this in my PPA: https://launchpad.net/~morgan/+archive and that package works fine on intrepid and fixes the problem.

Actually, here's a debdiff without ~ppa1 in the changelog version.

Uploaded, thanks.

For future reference when proposing a new upstream to fix a bug please
specify how the bug is fixed in that new version. During release time
please also give a pointer to the other changes that were made so that
the sponsor can judge whether it is suitable.

Also, when requesting sponsorship of a new upstream the usual method
is to attach the .diff.gz from the new source package, and give a pointer
to the new tarball hosted on the upstream site.

Thanks,

James

Oh, and does anything need to be fixed in sugar-web-activity
on this bug? If not please invalidate that task.

Thanks,

Thanks James,

Upstream haven't been publishing changelogs for hulahop (just indicating bugs fixed in release announcements) - I'll ask them to do so. Based on the git logs the changes between 0.4.1 (the previous version) and 0.4.6 are all bug fixes, not new features, but I couldn't tell which version specifically fixed the issue from the git logs - testing showed that it works with the latest stable release.

I'll use the .diff.gz method next time for a new upstream revision.
