Bug Description

Also affects genshi 0.6-3 in sid, which should be able to be synced as the entire Ubuntu delta has been taken up in Debian.

The problem is that raring's python2.7 incorporates changeset http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/eb7ea51e658e/ which changed the definition of tokenize.PseudoToken which genshi depends on. This causes an infinite loop in genshi's test suite.

Reported upstream at http://genshi.edgewall.org/ticket/540

Workaround: change the definition of PseudoToken in genshi.template.interpolation to be hardcoded to what Python defined it as before (eg. from quantal). This seems to work and I have a patch, but I'd like to hear what upstream think about it or if there is a better fix.

In the meantime, genshi will also FTBFS due to what I think is a Python regression which I'll report separately, so might as well hold off on a fix until that is resolved.

Second cause of this FTBFS is a possible Python regression in bug 1097783.

Bug 1097783 is now fixed in raring, so just this issue remains. I've updated upstream and am waiting to hear back from them. Unless they have a better suggestion or an objection, hardcoding the old definition of PseudoToken in a patch makes sense to me.

Fix attached. This includes a merge which drops the previous Ubuntu delta since both previous patches have been adopted in Debian and these are Debian's only changes. But this fix introduces a new one.
