Currently there are 2 issues blocking the upload:

1. the testcase fails with python2.5
2. deb822.py is licenced gplv2, but we have gplv3 modules using it

for 1: there are changed semantics in Tarball. Since we want to move to
python2.5 in debian soon, and ubuntu has this since quite some time, I
think we should fix the package so it works with both python versions.

for 2: I'm currently not entirely sure if this is really a problem. In
order to avoid confusion and discussion of ftp-masters, can deb822.py be
relicensed as gplv3 or later, and be done with it?
