Public bug reported: The version of python-2.5.2 available on intrepid has a big problem, it does not allow importing * with a relative import:
from .module import * SyntaxError: 'import *' not allowed with 'from .' This is issue 2400 in the python bugtracker: http://bugs.python.org/issue2400 , it was resolved back in May of 2008. Its a complete blocker for development on my physical quantities package (https://launchpad.net/python-quantities). Please, (please, please) could we get an update to python-2.5.4 or could someone please apply the patch mentioned at http://bugs.python.org/issue2400 to the currently available version in ubuntu?
