Public bug reported: In vivid, we have Django 1.7 and piston 0.2.3.
Piston 0.2.3 breaks with Django 1.7 because the module django.utils.simplejson has been removed from Django 1.7 (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/internals/deprecation /#deprecation-removed-in-1-7). Note that it has been deprecated since Django 1.5 (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/releases/1.5/#system- version-of-simplejson-no-longer-used). This patch: https://bitbucket.org/ckarrie/django- piston/commits/024ede7de7179cbe738322f6003c2d8d97d8e2a4 from a fork of piston (AFAIK the "official" upstream piston is unmaintained) fixes the problem. ** Affects: python-django-piston (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1431716 Title: "ImportError: cannot import name simplejson" when using piston 0.2.3 with Django 1.7 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-django-piston/+bug/1431716/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
