Package: python3-gpiozero
Version: 1.4.1-1.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

gpiozero fails to work with the Debian kernel (as opposed to the
raspberry pi foundation one).

With version 1.4.1, I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "t2.py", line 4, in <module>
    led = LED(4)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gpiozero/devices.py", line 95, in

_get_revision
    raise PinUnknownPi('unable to locate Pi revision in /proc/cpuinfo')
gpiozero.exc.PinUnknownPi: unable to locate Pi revision in /proc/cpuinfo


I tried upgrading to the current upstream git tree.
I run in another issue, which is caused by missing support in RPi.GPIO:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gpiozero/pins/pi.py", line 109, in pin
    pin = self.pins[n]
KeyError: 4

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "t2.py", line 4, in <module>
    led = LED(4)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gpiozero/devices.py", line 131, in

  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gpiozero/output_devices.py", line 99, in

    pin = self.pin_factory.pin(pin)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gpiozero/pins/pi.py", line 111, in pin
    pin = self.pin_class(self, n)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gpiozero/pins/rpigpio.py", line 132, in 
__init__
    GPIO.setup(self.number, GPIO.IN, self.GPIO_PULL_UPS[self._pull])
RuntimeError: Not running on a RPi!

That's due to missing support in RPi.GPIO (see #976114 and
https://sourceforge.net/p/raspberry-gpio-python/tickets/191/ ).

After fixing RPi.GPIO with the dirty patch I provided in the upstream ticket, 
gpiozero works fine.

However, gpiozero should also work without RPi.GPIO (see the native pin
factory in the code). Without RPi.GPIO, I get:

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gpiozero/devices.py:289: PinFactoryFallback:

This is known upstream, and there's a PR in progress:

Closing this bug as the issue *is* fixed.

Please open a separate wishlist bug for that.
