[Bug 584997] [NEW] TypeError in python wrapper, caused by swig change

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Mark Ellis (mark-mpellis):

SWIG 1.3.37 introduced, rightly or wrongly, some changes in the way
python is handled. This causes a crippling TypeError in python-opensync
built with later versions of swig, such as the package in 10.04 lucid.
The following patch will fix this problem, it will work ok with any
version but is only required in builds on lucid. Please apply, python-
opensync is crippled without this.

Description: Fix for change in SWIG after 1.3.36
 Upstream 0.2x branch is essentially unmaintained.
