Bug#693436: "ImportError: cannot import name poll" on hurd architecture

[Laurent Bigonville <bigon@debian.org>]

Package: python-twisted-core
Version: 12.0.0-1
Severity: important

Hi,

When importing twisted.internet.reactor[0] on a machine running
hurd-i386, I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/internet/reactor.py", line 37, in <module>
    from twisted.internet import default
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/internet/default.py", line 50, in <module>
    install = _getInstallFunction(platform)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/internet/default.py", line 44, in _getInstallFunction
    from twisted.internet.pollreactor import install
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/internet/pollreactor.py", line 16, in <module>
    from select import error as SelectError, poll
ImportError: cannot import name poll

Cheers
