Torrent flux, Python 2.6

[quietas]

Torrentflux has Python issues. I'm not sure if this relates to the borked issue though as I seem to have a higher version number.

TorrentFlux is running and will load correctly with the more recent Python updates. I am still having problems with some torrent sites though, Piratebay in particular.

It seems from the error I am getting (quoted above in apache2/error.log) that the error stems from the python-crypto package. There is even a possible fix from what I have read.

Can someone look in to this and get it rolled in soon? (or is it already?)

Looks like the Python update this evening fixed it.
