Package: python3-libtorrent Version: 0.16.17-1 Severity: important Hi,
I do not believe that the package should ship the python3 module until it is usable. This upstream bugreport is relevant: https://code.google.com/p/libtorrent/issues/detail?id=449 At the very least the package should express somewhere that the python3 module ships with severely limited functionality. To reproduce the error, either save the state of a session as in the upstream bugreport: import libtorrent as lt ses = lt.session() ses.listen_on(6821, 6831) ses.save_state() Or try to load a torrent from a file: import libtorrent as lt with open("my.torrent", "rb") as f: content = f.read() e = lt.bdecode(content) Both will result in UnicodeDecodeError which makes the module not usable for its intended purpose. cheers, josch -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages python3-libtorrent depends on: ii dpkg 1.17.10 ii libboost-python1.54.0 1.54.0-5+b1 ii libboost-system1.54.0 1.54.0-5+b1 ii libc6 2.19-7 ii libgcc1 1:4.9.0-7 ii libstdc++6 4.9.0-7 ii libtorrent-rasterbar7 0.16.17-1 ii python3 3.4.1-1 python3-libtorrent recommends no packages. python3-libtorrent suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
