[Python-modules-team] Bug#739476: ImportError: cannot import name ScopedSession

[Nils Dagsson Moskopp]

Package: python-elixir
Version: 0.7.1-1
Followup-For: Bug #739476

Please do not remove python-elixir, I am using it in real-world code!

I have not discovered this bug earlier because it is triggered by
python-sqlalchemy 0.8+, which changed the name of “ScopedSession” to
“scoped_session”. The version of python-sqlalchemy in wheezy is 0.7.8.

To fix the bug, in line 18 of /usr/share/pyshared/elixir/entity.py,
replace “ScopedSession” with “scoped_session as ScopedSession”.

python-elixir versions not having the patch should depend on
python-sqlachemy before 0.8.
