[Mageia-dev] python-tagpy build fail under cauldron

2012-12-02 Thread Joseph Wang
I just checked in a fix for this (325101). I don't have the permission to kick off a build, so someone else needs to do that. Also, if there are any python related issues let me know. I've been working a lot on my local machine on python packages so it is easy for me to work on them right now.
