Bug 310137 – dev-python/rst2pdf-0.12.3 incompatible with dev-python/reportlab-2.4

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jamie Learmonth 2010-03-18 21:21:00 UTC]

The current version of rst2pdf in the tree is not compatible with the recently stabilised dev-python/reportlab-2.4 . 

This issue was fixed upstream[1] and will require a version bump to 0.13.1 (~x86 ebuild attached) or will need to depend on dev-python/reportlab-2.3 .

[1] dev-python/rst2pdf-0.12.3 incompatible with dev-python/reportlab-2.4

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install dev-python/rst2pdf and dev-python/reportlab-2.4 gets pulled in as dependancy
2.Try to run rst2pdf on an existing .rst file
3.

Actual Results:  
Traceback (most recent call last):

Patch file, if sticking with current version (version bump looks good though)

Thanks! Strangely enough it worked for me. But I have bumped the version and applied your changes in light of the upstream bug report.
