Package: cython
Version: 0.15.1-2
Severity: important

Usertags: python3.3

cython generates import code that is incompatible with Python 3.3:

$ echo "import sys" > importtest.pyx
$ gcc $(python3.3-config --cflags --libs) -shared importtest.c -o importtest.so
$ python3.3 -c 'import importtest'
Traceback (most recent call last):
