patch hellanzb

When I launch hellanzb (a console based usenet binary downloader), I have this :

lowje@byiiana:~$ hellanzb 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/hellanzb", line 14, in <module>
    from Hellanzb.Core import main
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/Hellanzb/Core.py", line 9, in <module>
    from Hellanzb.HellaReactor import HellaReactor
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/Hellanzb/HellaReactor.py", line 14, in <module>
    from twisted.internet.selectreactor import _NO_FILENO
ImportError: cannot import name _NO_FILENO

This bug is known and is about called something "twisted" (which is python stuff as far as I understood) or whatever.

This thread http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=573221 sounds interesting. Especially this part :

these patches worked to fix twisted-10.0.0

http://pastie.org/877271 should be ran in
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Hellanzb/HellaXMLRPC/
and
http://pastie.org/877281 should be ran in
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Hellanzb/

At least it worked for me! :D

So, I copy the content of http://pastie.org/877271 in /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/Hellanzb/HellaXMLRPC/pach and http://pastie.org/877281 in /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/Hellanzb/pach

Then I did:

lowje@byiiana:/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/Hellanzb/HellaXMLRPC$ sudo patch < pach
patching file xmlrpc.py
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n] Y

1 out of 1 hunk ignored -- saving rejects to file HtPasswdAuth.py.rej

and

lowje@byiiana:/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/Hellanzb$ sudo patch < pach 
patching file HellaReactor.py
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n] Y
Apply anyway? [n] Y

lowje@byiiana:/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/Hellanzb$ ^C
lowje@byiiana:/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/Hellanzb$ sudo patch < pach 
patching file HellaReactor.py
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n] y

But hellanzb still doesn't work :/ Someone know what I did wrong?

Re: patch hellanzb

I'm also on sid and I have no such things when I install hellanzb via aptitude. Which is the command you use?

Re: patch hellanzb

The quick hack shown on this page worked a treat in Waldorf which I am using, maybe a stable user could test it... I copy/pasted the hack below

quick hack to fix this is:

/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/Hellanzb/HellaReactor.py

change lines 14 and 15 to

    from twisted.internet.posixbase import _NO_FILENO
     from twisted.internet.posixbase import _NO_FILEDESC
