Package: pyzo
Version: 4.4.3-1.2
Severity: grave
Tags: patch upstream
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

When trying to launch pyzo in a standard debian environment with python3.9, I
face the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pyzo", line 11, in <module>
    load_entry_point('pyzo==4.4.3', 'console_scripts', 'pyzo')()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 474, in

    return get_distribution(dist).load_entry_point(group, name)

    return ep.load()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2450,
in load
    return self.resolve()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2456,
in resolve
    module = __import__(self.module_name, fromlist=['__name__'], level=0)
  File "/usr/share/pyzo/pyzo/__init__.py", line 73, in <module>
    if commandline.is_our_server_running():
  File "/usr/share/pyzo/pyzo/core/commandline.py", line 150, in
is_our_server_running
    return server and server.isAlive()
AttributeError: 'Server' object has no attribute 'isAlive'

This error seems to be related to
https://github.com/pyzo/pyzo/issues/713

Applying the upstream patch fixes the problem - see attached. Upgrading pyzo to
a newer version should also be OK.

Regards,
Alexis Bienvenüe.
