Thanks for filling up this bug report. This was caused by an issue introduced transitioning to different python policy builders. The fix has been uploaded to the NEW queue and should be available really soon. Urgency has been set to the highest for reducing the migration into testing as little as possible. Once again, thanks for reporting this. Have a great day. Cheers, Dererk -- BOFH excuse #450: Terrorists crashed an airplane into the server room, have to remove /bin/laden. (rm -rf /bin/laden)
