Thanks Armando for your report.
As you can see here, the problem occurs while processing a file which
is part of python-soappy, so this bug is totally unrelated to istanbul.
If you really don't use python-soappy, you can try to remove it to
workaround this bug.
The bug was already reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/413244

I'm now reassigning this bug to the proper package and merging with
pre-existent. 

For the Python-team: could you please consider proposing
python-soappy/0.11.3-1.8 (which fixes this) for next etch point-release?
I raised the severity for this bug, as it seems to prevent the use of
python-soappy on etch.

Cheers, Luca
