DAK, Debian versions, and SQL Alchemy versions

["Brooke, Simon" <Simon.Brooke@henryschein.co.uk>]

Dear all

I am still struggling to get dak installed and running, and have run into a new little problem:

dak@debserver:~$ dak.py import-keyring -U '%s' s3kr1t/dot-gnupg/pubring.gpg
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/srv/dak/bin/dak.py", line 39, in <module>
    import daklib.utils
  File "/usr/local/dak/dak/daklib/utils.py", line 42, in <module>
    from dbconn import DBConn, get_architecture, get_component, get_suite, \
  File "/usr/local/dak/dak/daklib/dbconn.py", line 117, in <module>
    raise Exception("dak only ported to SQLA versions 0.5 and 0.6.  See daklib/dbconn.py")
Exception: dak only ported to SQLA versions 0.5 and 0.6.  See daklib/dbconn.py
dak@debserver:~$ dpkg -l | grep sqlalchemy
ii  python-sqlalchemy                    0.7.4-1                        SQL toolkit and Object Relational Mapper for Python
ii  python-sqlalchemy-ext                0.7.4-1                        SQL toolkit and Object Relational Mapper for Python - C extension
dak@debserver:~$ 

OK, so, this problem is about Debian versions... According to 
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/python-sqlalchemy, the version of SQLAlchemy in Squeeze is 0.6. I started off this exercise using Squeeze, and at some point thought I needed a package from Testing, so I altered my sources.list to fetch Testing. I can't now remember exactly why I did that. Presumably python-sqlalchemy 0.7 is coming from Testing.

So: should I start again, using just Squeeze and Squeeze-backports? What Debian version are people who are running production daks currently using?

Many thanks

Simon
