** Summary changed: - Does not install for all python versions + Paste cannot be used on python2.5
** Description changed: - The packaging of python-paste was not updated for jaunty, and it - installs only for python2.6, even if python2.5 is still supported. + The packaging of python-paste was not updated for jaunty, so it installs + only for python2.6, even if python2.5 is still officially supported. - I have adapted recent changes to pastescript to produce a working paste - package. + Impact: + This is a severe regression for webapps that use paster to run and still depend on python2.5. Example is SchoolTool that is built on top of Zope 3.4, which has several incompatibilities with python2.6 and thus requires 2.4 or 2.5 to run. Because of this bug after the server is upgraded to jaunty the schooltool server fails to start. + + Steps to reproduce: + $ sudo apt-get install python-pastescript + $ paster2.5 help + Traceback (most recent call last): + File "/usr/bin/paster2.5", line 18, in <module> + command.run() + File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/paste/script/command.py", line 83, in run + command = commands[command_name].load() + File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 1912, in load + if require: self.require(env, installer) + File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 1925, in require + working_set.resolve(self.dist.requires(self.extras),env,installer)) + File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 524, in resolve + raise DistributionNotFound(req) # XXX put more info here + pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: Paste>=1.3 + + The patch attached to this bug was applied to a newer version of paste + in debian and karmic.
