• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Naohiro Aota 2009-05-24 09:02:12 UTC]

`with' became reserved keyword in python2.6 so that
/usr/bin/fvwm-crystal.apps doesn't work well with python2.6.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. eselect python set python2.6
2. start fvwm-crystal
3. You may find that the application menu doesn't appear.


Actual Results:  
/usr/bin/fvwm-crystal.apps exit with the following error.

% /usr/bin/fvwm-crystal.apps
  File "/usr/bin/fvwm-crystal.apps", line 209

The problem also affects fvwm-crystal-3.0.5 and needs a similar patch.  Please apply the same patch to that version or bump 3.0.6-r1 as stable.
