Package: xword
Version: 2.0.0~rc2-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
xword will not open NY Times crossword puzzles. The following is the error:
$ xword
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/games/xword/organizer.py", line 102, in init
self.model.create_model(pbar.set_fraction, self.is_done)
File "/usr/share/games/xword/model.py", line 166, in create_model
(squares, date, title, source) = analyze_puzzle(p, f)
File "/usr/share/games/xword/model.py", line 66, in analyze_puzzle
(date, title) = analyze_NYTimes_puzzle(p, f)
File "/usr/share/games/xword/model.py", line 98, in analyze_NYTimes_puzzle
date = datetime.datetime.strptime(dateStr, '%a, %b %d, %Y')
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/_strptime.py", line 325, in _strptime
(data_string, format))
ValueError: time data 'Tuesday, December 17, 2013' does not match format '%a,
%b %d, %Y'
I was able to fix this by changing line 98 in model.py from:
date = datetime.datetime.strptime(dateStr, '%a, %b %d, %Y')
to:
date = datetime.datetime.strptime(dateStr, '%A, %B %d, %Y')
Since NY Times now uses the full words, e.g. Wednesday and December (not
abbreviations e.g. Wed and Dec) for the titles.
