[Python-modules-team] Bug#744145: [python-pip] The problem comes from de-vendorize.patch

[Yannick Roehlly]

Package: python-pip
Version: 1.5.6-2

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

The problem comes from de-vendorize.patch:

[...]
-from pip._vendor.requests.compat import IncompleteRead
[...]
+from requests.compat import IncompleteRead

Previous versions of requests raised IncompleteRead (from httplib) but now it 
raises ChunkedEncodingError. In download.py, the IncompleteRead is re-raised 
as ChunkedEncodingError.

A quick fix would be to use "from httplib import IncompleteRead" in the 
de-vendorize.patch (even if the IncompleteRead will not be raised by requests 
any more).

Note that there may be other problems with pip using the upgraded requests.

Regards,

Yannick
