Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org Usertags: pu Hi, Since "wheezy" release, Twitter has made breaking changes to their APIs and this has broken some packages in the archive like tweepy (e.g. #736174). For this reason, I'm proposing an update to the stable version to change two default settings and make usable this package again. I'm attaching a .debdiff with the proposed change.
