[Bug 1181814] [NEW] Crash: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'isNumberType'

[Kamal Mostafa]

Public bug reported:

The new python-imaging (1.1.7+2.0.0-1) now causes 'wsjt' (and surely other apps) to crash in Raring as shown below.
The problem does not happen with python-imaging (1.1.7-x) in Quantal or Debian unstable.

The problem has apparently been fixed in python-imaging upstream, per
this thread, which links to the fix commit:
