[PKG-Openstack-devel] Bug#834841: sahara: FTBFS too much often (ImportError: No module named pep8)

[Santiago Vila]

Package: src:sahara
Version: 1:4.0.0-2
Severity: serious

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(which is what the "Arch: all" autobuilder would do to build it)
but it failed:

Because this source package only generates "Arch: all" packages, this
is the same as a FTBFS bug in the usual sense, and the fact that I was
doing "dpkg-buildpackage -A" does not mean anything special.

Thanks.
