[Pkg-running-devel] Bug#749256: pytrainer: depends on python-webkit which is deprecated

[Christian PERRIER]

Quoting pochu at debian.org (pochu at debian.org):
> Package: pytrainer
> Version: 1.10.1-2
> Severity: important
> User: pkg-webkit-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
> Usertags: oldlibs python-webkit webkit1

I accidentally uploaded a package version that was dropping the
dependency, mistakenly thinking it would be enough, but my tests were
too lazy and it happens that pytrainer really depends on
python-webkit. Some code rewrite is needed, asdly, and upstream hadn't
time or motivation to fix this.

So, I just reuploaded a package that re-introduces the dependency,
sorry for this.
