[Python-modules-team] Bug#494298: FTBFS: crashes with python2.5 if python-pyicu is present

[Carlos]

Package: parsedatetime
Severity: serious

parsedatetime FTBFS with python 2.5 [1] while running tests if
python-pyicu [2] package is installed.

Partial build log:
---
running build_py
set -e ;\
	for py in python2.4 python2.5; do  \
	    PYTHONPATH=/home/cgalisteo/kk/parsedatetime/parsedatetime-0.8.6/build/lib
$py run_tests.py parsedatetime; \
	done
.........................................
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 41 tests in 0.084s

OK
*** glibc detected *** python2.5: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x407e67f0 ***
----

If I launch the command by hand:

PYTHONPATH=/home/cgalisteo/kk/parsedatetime/parsedatetime-0.8.6/build/lib
python2.4 run_tests.py parsedatetime
.........................................
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 41 tests in 0.083s

OK

PYTHONPATH=/home/cgalisteo/kk/parsedatetime/parsedatetime-0.8.6/build/lib
python2.5 run_tests.py parsedatetime
.*** glibc detected *** python2.5: malloc(): memory corruption: 0xb78927f0 ***



Purging python-pyicu, makes the package to build again (except for #485054).




[1] tested with  2.5.2-10 and 2.5.2-6
[2] python-pyicu_0.8.1-2
