Freeze exception for python-distutils-extra 2.34-1



Hello release team,

please consider a freeze exception for

  http://packages.qa.debian.org/p/python-distutils-extra/news/20120709T093222Z.html

python-distutils-extra (2.34-1) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * debian/rules: Run Python3 tests under C locale, to expose more unicode
    errors.
  * auto.py: Fix *.ui detection to be robust for non-ASCII files.
    (LP: #1017468)

  [ Didier Roche ]
  * auto.py: Fix a regression with python2 if files have some utf-8 directives
    (LP: #1021969)

The first change

  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~python-distutils-extra-hackers/python-distutils-extra/debian/revision/292

just makes the test suite stricter, and has no impact on runtime
behaviour whatsoever.

The second change (https://launchpad.net/bugs/1017468)

 http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~python-distutils-extra-hackers/python-distutils-extra/debian/revision/293

fixes a crash when encountering non-ASCII *.ui files. The crash is
reproduced by the changed tests, and the tests ensure that it's still
working.

The third change (https://launchpad.net/bugs/1021969)

  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~python-distutils-extra-hackers/python-distutils-extra/debian/revision/295

reverts a change from 2.33 which was necessary for Python 3, but broke
Python 2, so it now conditionalizes the fix from 2.33 for Python 3
only. Again, the added test reproduces the problem (the tests are run
for both Python 2 and 3), and ensures that the functionality is still
working.

Thanks!

Martin
