I actually tried to do the port to the suds library, and there was
more pain than what I noted in the bug report. Suds was a library that
I worked with quite a bit in the past, so I thought I would be able to
make the port happen, however I never did get suds to make the
requests that debbugs expects. If anyone else is willing to give it a
try, I am interested in knowing if it is even possible with suds. The
issues I ran into are outlined in this stackoverflow post:

http://stackoverflow.com/q/21071589/1032785

The underlying issue is that what the debbugs API calls an "array"
isn't really an SOAP array. I think the best solution is provide a new
version of the debbugs SOAP API that implements proper SOAP types or
add REST API.
