--- Begin Message ---Package: newt Version: 0.52.2-11.1 python-newt is currently broken with python2.5 because it uses PyMem_Del (line 928 in snackmodule.c) on data it allocated with PyObject_NEW, resulting in a crash when glibc detects that one tries to free an invalid pointer. Replacing this call with PyObject_DEL makes the crash go away.
