Package: python-xdg
Version: 0.14-2
Severity: normal
The pyxdg.Menu module won't work with Python 2.3 because it uses the
'reversed' builtin, which (I think) is only present in Python 2.4:
$ /usr/share/doc/python-xdg/examples/test-menu.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

NameError: global name 'reversed' is not defined
Until the switch to Python 2.4, this can be worked around by adding the
following to </usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/xdg/Menu.py>:
def reversed(x):
return x[::-1]
