Public bug reported: Binary package hint: python2.6
There is already a fix for this. See http://svn.python.org/view?view=rev&revision=73887 It is also fixed in Karmic. Can it be backported? Note that the fix is trivial. I have applied it myself (hence the "modified" status of SocketServer.py in the generated report).
