This bug was fixed in the package python-apt - 0.7.94.2ubuntu1 (as part
of the merge)

---------------


python-apt (0.7.92) experimental; urgency=low

  * New features:
    - Provide a C++ API in the package python-apt-dev (Closes: #334923).
    - Add apt_pkg.HashString and apt_pkg.IndexRecords (Closes: #456141).
    - Add apt_pkg.Policy class (Closes: #382725).
    - Add apt_pkg.Hashes class.
    - Allow types providing __new__() to be subclassed.
    - Add apt_pkg.DepCache.mark_auto() and apt.Package.mark_auto() methods to
      mark a package as automatically installed.
    - Make AcquireFile a subclass of AcquireItem, thus inheriting attributes.
    - New progress handling in apt.progress.base and apt.progress.text. Still
      missing Qt4 progress handlers.
    - Classes in apt_inst (Closes: #536096)
      + You can now use apt_inst.DebFile.data to access the data.tar.* member
        regardless of its compression (LP: #44493)

  * Unification of dependency handling:
    - apt_pkg.parse_[src_]depends() now use CompType instead of CompTypeDeb
      (i.e. < instead of <<) to match the interface of Version.depends_list_str
    - apt_pkg.SourceRecords.build_depends matches exactly the interface of
      Version.depends_list_str just with different keys (e.g. Build-Depends).
      + Closes: #468123 - there is no need anymore for binding CompType or
        CompTypeDeb, because we don't return integer values for CompType
        anymore.

  * Bugfixes:
    - Delete pointers correctly, fixing memory leaks (LP: #370149).
    - Drop open() and close() in apt_pkg.Cache as they cause segfaults.
    - Raise ValueError in AcquireItem if the Acquire process is shut down
      instead of segfaulting.

  * Other stuff:
    - Merge releases 0.7.10.4 - 0.7.12.1 from unstable.
    - Merge Configuration,ConfigurationPtr,ConfigurationSub into one type.
    - Simplify the whole build process by using a single setup.py.
    - The documentation has been restructured and enhanced with tutorials.
    - Only recommend lsb-release instead of depending on it. Default to
      Debian unstable if lsb_release is not available.
