Re: [Python-modules-team] squeeze update of python-django?



I CCed Raphaël Hertzog <hertzog@debian.org> as he may have missed the
original email to <python-modules-team@lists.alioth.debian.org>, which
is normally for automatic messages only.



I think our priorities need to be with the unstable version (which also
has a grave bug), and then the stable version.

In the meantime however, here is a patch to the change in the 1.7.x
version:

https://github.com/django/django/commit/8a01c6b53169ee079cb21ac5919fdafcc8c5e172

The patch doesn't apply cleanly to 1.2.x in squeeze, however it looks
like it should be relatively simple to apply manually...

Think only the changes to django/utils/formats.py will be required.
