Package: python3-cherrypy3
Version: 8.9.1-6
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I have a small cherrypy application with a separate configuration file.
During the loading of the configuration file I get following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cherrypy/lib/reprconf.py", line 213, in
as_dict
value = unrepr(value)
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cherrypy/lib/reprconf.py", line 518, in
unrepr
return b.build(obj)
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cherrypy/lib/reprconf.py", line 359, in
build
raise TypeError('unrepr does not recognize %s' %
TypeError: unrepr does not recognize 'Constant'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):

ValueError: ("Config error in section: '/', option: 'test', value: 'True'.

'Constant'",))
The same simple example works on older versions of Debian, and it also
works when I use cherrypy from pip (18.6.0)
The example:
test.py:
import cherrypy
class Root(object):
@cherrypy.expose
def index(self):
return "hello world!"
cherrypy.quickstart(Root(), '/', "app.conf")
-End of File-
app.conf:
[/]
test: True
-End of File-
- Including the configuration in the python code works
- A newer version of cherrypy from pip works
- It might be a problem with that specific version of cherrypy, even
though I was not able to find a corresponding bug.
