Package: python3-imaplib2
Version: 2.42-2
Severity: normal

Hello!

The python 3 version of imaplib2 has a bug with exception handling:

It uses

try:
    foo
except Exception as msg:
    pass

and tries to re-use "msg" later. This is no longer allowed in python 3, leading
to UnboundLocalError exceptions in some cases.

I already reported this upstream and it is fixed in version 2.47.

It would be great if you could update this package to the newest version.

Thanks,

Tobias
