Package: jython Version: 2.5.3-5 Severity: important Hi.
I have jython installed on my system that is running testing. Unfortunately, it seems that some recent upgrade changed the dependencies of jython and it, now, fails to start with a backtrace. Here is what I get: $ jython "my" variable $jythonHome masks earlier declaration in same scope at /usr/bin/jython line 15. Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: jnr/posix/POSIXHandler at org.python.modules.Setup.<clinit>(Setup.java:29) at org.python.core.PySystemState.initBuiltins(PySystemState.java:1047) at org.python.core.PySystemState.doInitialize(PySystemState.java:883) at org.python.core.PySystemState.initialize(PySystemState.java:802) at org.python.core.PySystemState.initialize(PySystemState.java:752) at org.python.core.PySystemState.initialize(PySystemState.java:745) at org.python.util.jython.run(jython.java:150) at org.python.util.jython.main(jython.java:129) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: jnr.posix.POSIXHandler at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:366) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:355) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:354) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:425) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:308) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:358) ... 8 more I don't know exactly which package is the culprit here, which is why I have not put a higher severity, but since this makes jython unusable, perhaps a higher severity is in order. If jython is not really the culprit here, feel free to reassign this bug as appropriate. If I manually downgrade many packages related to jython to their versions in jessie, then I am able to get jython working again. If any further information is needed, please let me know and I will try my best to provide them, so that we can have a version of jython that works fine in sid.
