Package: python-vobject
Version: 0.8.1c-3
When parsing an iCal file containing "\t" (tab, actually two characters)
using readOne(), the parser raises a ParseError, aborting the parsing.
This defect is _not_ in the upstream source but introduced by Debian patch
"0003-Treat-untils-as-floating.patch", removing this patch fixes the
problem.
I can not see any advantage of raising an exception instead of simply
accepting unknown escaped chars (like in the upstream source).
BTW: is there a reason why 0.8.1.c-3 is not present in the Debian git repo?
Cheers,
Raphael
