Package: gitosis
Version: 0.2+20080419-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software
When installed, gitosis modifies the python sys.path for version 2.4
including /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ as one of the first items,
breaking every other software that depends on python 2.4 and imports
modules that should come from /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ instead.
One example is rhythmbox. Simply importing cairo with python2.4 can show
this problem.
