I would appreciate feedback if the different python-apt

findings/information about that will help.
Hi!
I just finished doing that, and it seems you're right.
I rebuilt python-apt 0.7.96.1, 0.7.96.1build1, 0.7.97 and 0.7.97.1
against apt/apt-utils 0.8.0 and they all exhibit this bug:

So, it seems that python-apt 0.7.96.1 only worked for me due to the
older apt/apt-utils 0.7.25.3:

I noticed this during the build against apt/apt-utils 0.8.0 -- I think
this is the same Python object that leads PyString_FromFormat to choke:
python/acquire.cc: In function 'PyObject* PkgAcquireNew(PyTypeObject*,
PyObject*, PyObject*)':
python/acquire.cc:331: warning: 'pkgAcquire::pkgAcquire(pkgAcquireStatus*)' is
deprecated (declared at /usr/include/apt-pkg/acquire.h:352)
Perhaps there was some incompatible change in that object in APT 0.8.0?
