[Bug 1097776] [NEW] genshi 0.6-2ubuntu1 FTBFS on amd64 in raring

[Robie Basak]

Public bug reported:

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.
