[Pkg-privacy-maintainers] Bug#973512: RuntimeError: dictionary keys changed during iteration

[Kingsley G. Morse Jr.]

Package: onioncircuits
Version: 0.7-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Thank you for maintaining onioncircuits.

Much like the tenet of patron privacy that public
libraries hold dear, I love the ideal of voters
using TOR to privately and safely explore new
ideas without fear of repercussion from neighbors
or employers, and ultimately become a better
informed electorate that can actually rule itself
wisely enough to successfully sustain a democratic
form of government.

The main reason I'm writing is to suggest
improving the dependency info for the
onioncircuits package to specify at least version
1.8.0-2 of the python3-stem package.

It currently accepts any version, but when I tried
1.7.1-1, onioncircuits failed with

    Traceback (most recent call last):

Doing 

    root$ aptitude install python3-stem

fixed it.

Thanks, and kind regards,
Kingsley
