[Bug 408663] Re: python2.6 (python-visual) crashed with SIGSEGV in __cxa_allocate_exception()

[Guy K. Kloss]

I was the one who has backported the 5.11 karmic package to jaunty back
then. Now being with one box on a kubuntu karmic beta gives me quite a
headache as well.

I'm getting the same results, both when I'm installing the distribution
provided binary package as well as when I'm using the dpkg-buildpackage
method on the karmic sources myself. The build and install works
flawlessly, but when executing a sample shows some trouble, which is
different from the symptoms mentioned above:

guy at mountpaku:/usr/share/doc/python-visual/examples$ python orbit.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "orbit.py", line 1, in <module>
    from visual import *
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/visual/__init__.py", line 59, in <module>
    import cvisual
AttributeError: 'Boost.Python.StaticProperty' object attribute '__doc__' is read-only

Any clues? Has maybe the boost version changed in an incompatible way,
or are some dependencies not listed in the source package, which just
happened to be satisfied on my old Jaunty backport due to other pre-
conditions of my system?
