[Bug 1425627] Re: [py3] bug.subscribe() crashes with simplejson.scanner.JSONDecodeError

[Martin Pitt]

This is my attempt at reproducing, which already became reasonably
complicated... So for now reproducing with apport's test suite should
work.

  [py3] bug.subscribe() crashes with simplejson.scanner.JSONDecodeError

Bug description:
  While porting Apport to python 3 I stumbled over this exception:

  bzr branch lp:apport
  cd apport
  ln -s ../backends/packaging-apt-dpkg.py apport/packaging_impl.py
  # work around bug 1425575
  wget -O- http://people.canonical.com/~pitti/tmp/apport.workaround-1425575.patch | patch -p1
  PYTHONPATH=. python3 apport/crashdb_impl/launchpad.py -v _T.test_2_update_traces

  crashes with

  Unfortunately I wasn't able to come up with a simple reproducer script for this. Something like

  bug = lp.bugs[123456]
  person = '%s~ubuntu-crashes-universe' % lp._root_uri
  bug.subscribe(person=person)

  works fine, so there must be some more internal state keeping which
  messes this up. Please let me know if you need a simpler reproducer
  for this, then I'll try harder.
