Package: python-pycountry
Version: 0.14.1+ds1-2
Severity: grave
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Pycountry has been broken by an update of iso-codes.
It appears that the file /usr/share/xml/iso-codes/iso_639.xml now
contains a new attribute for some languages : "common_name" (for
instance for "Bengali"/"Bangla").
When importing pycountry, the following exception is raised:
>>> import pycountry
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "pycountry/__init__.py", line 104, in <module>
languages = Languages(os.path.join(DATABASE_DIR, 'iso_639.xml'))
File "pycountry/db.py", line 54, in __init__
entry.attributes.get(key).value)
KeyError: u'common_name'
Please find attached to this bug report a patch fixing this issue.
