Bug#516799: elisa crashes on startup (module object has no attribute Bus)

Mon Feb 23 18:28:12 UTC 2009

Package: elisa
Version: 0.5.28-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Just upgraded my elisa install from unstable to the one in experimental.
Just to be sure I also did rm -rf ~/.elisa* but that didn't make a difference.
