[Python-apps-team] Bug#717763: beets: needs to Depend on python-musicbrainzngs (>= 0.4)

Package: beets
Version: 1.2.1-1
Severity: minor

Noticed when setting up the new beets release on a wheezy (stable) system:

% beet stats
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/beet", line 5, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2711, in <module>
    parse_requirements(__requires__), Environment()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 584, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: musicbrainzngs>=0.4

stable still has python-musicbrainzngs 0.2-1, and this problem is easily solved
by installing 0.4-1 from unstable instead.  (In fact, all the dependencies that
beets has at the moment can be satisfied on stable by selectively picking them
out of unstable, no recompilation necessary - very handy!)  Simply adding an
"(>= 0.4)" constraint to the existing Depends: on python-musicbrainzngs should
clear that up for any other prospective backporters.

Thanks very much.
