Yes I did and there was a file, which I got unchanged in the output
location even days later, so eventually I deleted it and it wasn't
replaced, that was when I filed the bug.

The error messages I referred to I only got before the switch of the
default python version. The channel update now runs without displaying
any error messages.

But the good news: upgrading from 1.8-16+b1 to 1.8-17 actually fixes the
problem, in some magic way. When I saw the update coming up in aptitude,
and after reading your mail, I tested again to be sure the problem still
persists, which it did. After the upgrade everything worked, so to be absolutely
sure, I downgraded again to 1.8-16+b1 (which is now in testing) and
again I had the same problems. So I'd say 1.8-16+b1 is in some way
broken, and 1.8-17 fixes that.

BTW thanks for a lot of good work in getting the plucker package in
shape!

Florian
