Sync pype 2.9.1-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

I agree, completely broken, FFe not necessary.

Sync request ACK'd

Autosynced in Natty. This bug didn't receive attention in time before Maverick released, so we can't remove it from there now; perhaps somebody could figure out the nature of the breakage and propose a minimal diff per http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates.

Unsubscribing ubuntu-archive, as the rest of this isn't an archive admin matter.

I belive the version in Natty should be released as an SRU to Maverick. The risk of breaking something is extremely low, and the package currently in Maverick is completely broken. It is currently not possible to start PyPE in Maverick. I see no point in locating the oldest upstream version that will run in Maverick, as the current also fixes a few bugs present since hardy.

Agreed, SRU ack. Please feel free to upload a backport to maverick. We can't autosync it to stable releases.

Uploaded backport.

Accepted pype into maverick-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

Downloaded the package from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+queue?queue_state=2&queue_text=
and installed. The fix seem to work (as I already knew..) and I can find no negative side-effects.
Thanks for uploading.
