Description

On visiting /about, I encountered the following exception:

2016-10-24 09:59:10,686 Trac[main] ERROR: Internal Server Error: <RequestWithSession "GET '/about'">, referrer None
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/var/www/trac/virtualenv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/trac/web/main.py", line 562, in _dispatch_request
    dispatcher.dispatch(req)
  File "/var/www/trac/virtualenv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/trac/web/main.py", line 249, in dispatch
    resp = chosen_handler.process_request(req)
  File "/var/www/trac/virtualenv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/trac/about.py", line 66, in process_request

    yield 'dnspython', get_pkginfo(dns)['version']
KeyError: 'version'

This is on a standard Debian 8 jessie installation, with python-dnspython 1.12.0-1. The trac.util.get_pkginfo function returns an empty dict when asking for the version of the module. This in itself might be another bug in Trac or it needs to be fixed in Debian's packaging.

$ python -c 'import dns; from trac.util import get_pkginfo; print get_pkginfo(dns)'
{}

Workaround

comment:1 by Rainer Müller <raimue@…>, 7 years ago

The attached patch mitigates the problem by using .get('version') to access the value. Instead of throwing an exception, an empty version will be displayed on the /about page if the version cannot be determined.

Hmmm, the python-dnspython package has *.egg-info metadata however it is single file rather than a directory which contains *.egg-info/PKG-INFO. The get_pkginfo() utility doesn't work with metadata as a file.

$ dpkg --listfiles python-dnspython | grep info
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dnspython-1.12.0.egg-info
$ ls -la /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dnspython-1.12.0.egg-info
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1280 Sep 15  2014 /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dnspython-1.12.0.egg-info
