Public bug reported:
The LSB utils use the old-style (Python 2.2) "raise" statement
throughout the Python code for tools like initdutils. With Python 2.7,
this causes them to error out. Example:
=========
Stopping LogMeIn Hamachi VPN tunneling engine logmein-hamachi *
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/lsb/remove_initd", line 3, in <module>
import sys, re, os, initdutils
File "/usr/lib/lsb/initdutils.py", line 18
raise ValueError, 'need a file or string'
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Unpacking replacement logmein-hamachi ...
Setting up logmein-hamachi (2.1.0.86-1) ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/lsb/install_initd", line 3, in <module>
import sys, re, os, initdutils
File "/usr/lib/lsb/initdutils.py", line 18
raise ValueError, 'need a file or string'
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Starting LogMeIn Hamachi VPN tunneling engine logmein-hamachi *
Processing triggers for ureadahead ...
==========
Please take two steps from here:
1. kick the bug upstream.
2. add a packaging requirement for lsb-core depending on Python 2.5
until they fix their code.
