Package: python-html2text
Version: 3.200.1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

after python-html2text was upgraded to 3.200.1-1 the feeds read by
rss2email can't be parsed anymore:

=== rss2email encountered a problem with this feed ===
=== See the rss2email FAQ at http://www.allthingsrss.com/rss2email/ for
assistance ===
=== If this occurs repeatedly, send this to lindsey at allthingsrss.com ===
E: could not parse http://www.tagesschau.de/xml/rss2
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/rss2email/rss2email.py", line 681, in run
name = h2t.unescape(getName(r, entry))
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'unescape'
rss2email 2.71
feedparser 5.0.1
html2text 3.200.1
Python 2.7.2+ (default, Dec 17 2011, 16:58:10) 
[GCC 4.6.2]
=== END HERE ===

When downgrading to 3.1.0.1-1 the error is gone, it's working fine again.
