>Description:

Since installing FreeBSD 8.2 B1 (upgrading from 8.0) HellaNZB didn't work any more (stopping with an error ImportError: cannot import name _NO_FILENO). It seems a problem since spring 2010 I think du e to changes in python. There are many reports from Linux users with the same problem.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to run hellanzb
>Fix:
I already sent this to the maintainer (pjenvey at groovie.org) on 12-12-2010 btw. but I never got a response...


I've just installed FreeBSD 8.2 B1 and HellaNZB doesn't work (stopping with an error ImportError: cannot import name _NO_FILENO). It seems a problem since spring this year, there are 2 patches available that fix it for me:
