Title:
  asciidoc fails because of deprecated python module

Status in “asciidoc” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: asciidoc

  The package asciidoc 8.2.7-2ubuntu1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu jaunty
  fails to run because, in python, it tries to import the module
  "popen2", which is deprecated. I think this issue is caused by the
  move to python 2.6, since this module loads fine on for example debian
  sid that currently has python 2.5.4 as default.
