[Python-modules-team] Bug#852363: python-pisa: xhtml2pdf throws exception (html5lib.inputstream)

[Hugo Lefeuvre]

Hi Sandro, Martin,

Sorry for not replying sooner, I am just drowning in work currently.

I have looked at the pisa package and tried to patch it the way I
mentionned earlier, but it turned out to not be sufficient, so I have
made some more modifications. You can find a first (somewhat dirty)
draft of patch in attachment.

With this patch, xhtml2pdf seemed to work correctly on several test
pages (e.g. this one[0]).

I'll try to improve/test this patch further. I'd not upload it in its
current state.

Could anybody have a look at it ?

Getting rid of pisa for buster would be a good idea indeed.

Thanks !

Cheers,
 Hugo
