Title:
  genshi 0.6-2ubuntu1 FTBFS on amd64 in raring

Status in “genshi” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  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.
