Package: mercurial-common Version: 1.0-4 Severity: important Makes (relatively) related software break, but isn't big enough issue to be critical/grave IMO, so filing as important. Please adjust severity as you see fit.
This is what happens if I try to use the python help facility to list modules when mercurial-common is installed: ------------------------------------------------------------ $ python Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Apr 16 2008, 23:58:07) [GCC 4.2.3 (Debian 4.2.3-3)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> help() Welcome to Python 2.5! This is the online help utility. If this is your first time using Python, you should definitely check out the tutorial on the Internet at http://www.python.org/doc/tut/. Enter the name of any module, keyword, or topic to get help on writing Python programs and using Python modules. To quit this help utility and return to the interpreter, just type "quit". To get a list of available modules, keywords, or topics, type "modules", "keywords", or "topics". Each module also comes with a one-line summary of what it does; to list the modules whose summaries contain a given word such as "spam", type "modules spam". help> modules Please wait a moment while I gather a list of all available modules... /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/apt/__init__.py:18: FutureWarning: apt API not stable yet warnings.warn("apt API not stable yet", FutureWarning) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site.py", line 342, in __call__ return pydoc.help(*args, **kwds) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1649, in __call__ self.interact() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1667, in interact self.help(request) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1683, in help elif request == 'modules': self.listmodules() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1804, in listmodules ModuleScanner().run(callback) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1855, in run for importer, modname, ispkg in pkgutil.walk_packages(): File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pkgutil.py", line 125, in walk_packages for item in walk_packages(path, name+'.', onerror): File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pkgutil.py", line 110, in walk_packages __import__(name) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/hgext/inotify/__init__.py", line 16, in <module> import client, errno, os, server, socket File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/hgext/inotify/server.py", line 15, in <module> import hgext.inotify.linux as inotify AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'inotify' >>> ------------------------------------------------------------ Obviously something should be done to prevent hgext from breaking the Python help facility.
