That's amazing, thank you very much.

Some extra information: I was able to make things work by just downgrading
jython and nothing else. Does that mean that jython is at a fault here?

More precisely, jython 2.5.3-3 works perfectly, but version 2.5.3-5 gives
the result that I reported, even if the rest of the dependencies are kept as
of unstable.

Can you confirm that jython 2.5.3-3 works, but that 2.5.3-5 is broken, even
with the updated versions of unstable? I hope that this guides you while
expressing the dependencies.
