The hardy binpackage was hulahop. The intrepid package, synced from debian, is python-hulahop (source sugar-hulahop). hulahop has been dropped from intrepid.

This transition needs to be handled.

I've tested my debdiff by building in pbuilder and installing the result. Please sponsor.

This should fix the only upgrade issue from hardy.

Hi Morgan,

Have you verified that an upgrade from the hardy state of this package
to the Intrepid one does the correct thing?

Thanks,

James

Hi James

I don't have a hardy box around any more, I'll try to set up a VM to test.
