Package: python-sure Version: 1.2.5-2 Severity: normal Exception testing in python-sure is broken in version 1.2.5, when you run something like this:
func.when.called_with(arg).should.throw(exp) The arguments from 'called_with()' don't get passed to 'func()'. You get an error like this: TypeError: func expected at least 1 arguments, got 0 This results in problems with tests in other python Debian packages, for example: Bug #746066 python-steadymark: FTBFS: Tests failures Github bug report: https://github.com/gabrielfalcao/sure/issues/48 This commit on github fixes the bug: https://github.com/gabrielfalcao/sure/commit/03e050c7f1e248ae690f6eec0b09f222278626ad The most recent upstream version of python-sure, 1.2.7, has the fix. https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/sure/sure-1.2.7.tar.gz I was able to use uupdate from the devscripts package to update the debian package to version 1.2.7 and build without problems. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages python-sure depends on: ii dpkg 1.17.18 ii python 2.7.8-1 ii python-nose 1.3.4-1 ii python-rednose 0.4.1-1 ii python-six 1.8.0-1 python-sure recommends no packages. python-sure suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
