Apparently the build works fine in wheezy so I have built it in wheezy and
uploaded it in sid.

sid and wheezy differ in their python2.7 version: 2.7.3-2 vs 2.7.3~rc2-2.1

So the regression might be between those two versions.

Doko, python-django test suite fails in sid but not in wheezy. The failure
looks like a HTMLParser regression. Do you know of any possible regression
in python 2.7.3 about this?

I see in the upstream changelog a “- Issue #14538: HTMLParser can now
parse correctly start tags that contain a bare '/'.” maybe this could be
related?

I also found https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/18239 which might imply
that Django is relying on some internals of HTMLParser so it would
actually be a bug in Django in that case...
