[Debichem-devel] Bug#549269: Parts of selection algebra don't work anymore

Package: pymol
Version: 1.2r1-1
Severity: important


  Hello,

  While checking older scripts (that used to work with the 1.1
release), I found that selection algebra does not work properly
anymore -- or at least did change significantly.

  Before, if you had defined two objects, say: petite_SU and
grande_SU, you could say:

  show cartoon, (petite_SU+grande_SU)

  Now, it fails with the error:

PyMOL>show cartoon, (petite_SU+grande_SU)
Selector-Error: Invalid selection name "petite_SU+grande_SU".
( petite_SU+grande_SU )<--

  It's quite painful, as it renders obsolete most of my dozens of
pymol scripts...

  Is that a bug, or a documented choice from upstream ?

  Meanwhile, I'm downgrading to the stable version.

  Cheers,

	Vincent
