[Bug 1431716] [NEW] "ImportError: cannot import name simplejson" when using piston 0.2.3 with Django 1.7

[Raphaël Badin]

Public bug reported:

In vivid, we have Django 1.7 and piston 0.2.3.

Piston 0.2.3 breaks with Django 1.7 because the module
django.utils.simplejson has been removed from Django 1.7
(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/internals/deprecation
/#deprecation-removed-in-1-7).  Note that it has been deprecated since
Django 1.5 (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/releases/1.5/#system-
version-of-simplejson-no-longer-used).

This patch: https://bitbucket.org/ckarrie/django-
piston/commits/024ede7de7179cbe738322f6003c2d8d97d8e2a4 from a fork of
piston (AFAIK the "official" upstream piston is unmaintained) fixes the
problem.
