[Bug 1216655] [NEW] Calling InitSystem() or InitConfig() raises AttributeError

[Tyler Hicks]

Public bug reported:

Starting with python-apt 0.8.9.1ubuntu1 in Saucy, calling InitSystem()
and InitConfig() fails:

$ python -c 'import apt_pkg; apt_pkg.InitSystem();'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'InitSystem'

Downgrading to 0.8.8.2ubuntu1 results in the expected behavior:

$ python -c 'import apt_pkg; apt_pkg.InitSystem();'
$ echo $?
0

** Affects: python-apt (Ubuntu)
     Importance: High
         Status: New
